Why? What happened? There's an option to reinstall software with dnf:

excerpt: man dnf:
------------------------
Reinstall Command
       dnf [options] reinstall <package-specs>...
              Installs  the  specified packages, fails if some of the packages
              are either not installed or not  available  (i.e.  there  is  no
              repository where to download the same RPM).
