Yes, it can be VERY annoying--especially if you have a lot of RPMs
installed and RPM searches are slow.
That bash functionality is part of an RPM called
PackageKit-command-not-found
When installed, it inserts a file, "/etc/profile.d/PackageKit.sh", that
login shells include when they read /etc/profile on startup. You can
sudo dnf remove PackageKit-command-not-found
if you want to get rid of that, uhm, "functionality" (or simply delete
"/etc/profile.d/PackageKit.sh" or move it to some directory other than
/etc/profile.d).
