Managed to destroy one of my own rawhide VM's that had automatic updates
enabled till I figured out how to workaround, so for anyone interested.

Hadn't rebooted for some time and when I tried to do a distro-sync I was
getting:

Hence removed python3-slip and python3-slip-dbus. After that I got a
segfault when trying to distro-sync. Consistent with 2 other rawhide VM's,
the same thing happened.

My system had sqlite-3.42.0-7.fc39 and rpm-4.18.1-3.fc39 so I grabbed from
koji the sqlite-3.41.2-3.fc39
<https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=2219084> version
(which was also dependent on the python3.11 abi) and installed it with:

$ sudo rpm -Uvh --oldpackage sqlite-3.41.2-3.fc39.ppc64le.rpm
sqlite-libs-3.41.2-3.fc39.ppc64le.rpm sqlite-devel-3.41.2-3.fc39.ppc64le.rpm

Then dnf didn't segfault anymore and I could distro-sync, getting the
latest python3.12, latest dnf etc.
