        Well, I try hard ...

        I did cd /usr/share/applications, and got

# ls|grep dnf
org.mageia.dnfdragora.desktop
org.mageia.dnfdragora-localinstall.desktop
org.mageia.dnfdragora-updater.desktop

        Is there some repo somewhere from which I can grep the standard 
icons for those three?

        Meanwhile, I got a surprise. I tried to construct the command, 
not surprisingly getting several failures -- my CLI-foo is miniscule. But 
then came this:

[root@localhost btth]# /usr/share/applications/org.mageia.dnfdragora-
localinstall.desktop
-bash: /usr/share/applications/org.mageia.dnfdragora-localinstall.desktop: 
Permission denied
[root@localhost btth]# 

        I suppose I should be glad it failed; but WHO has power to give 
or refuse permission to root??

        I also went back (as user, not root) to the GUI of /usr/share/
applications, opened the file for the installer, and found a box saying 
its command is dnfdragora-localinstall.desktop; I copied that, added a &, 
and got a screenful of messages I don't understand.
