Thanks for info. Think I had found that when I did the original 
update test and found these two repos no longer worked until I 
manually changed the paths.
ookla_speedtest-cli.repo
TurboVNC.repo

I did just comment the lines, and did a dnf clean all; dnf update and 
it seemed to run with no error. 
Assume both repos had the line from something that had told them. 
Why do the have the sslcacert= option if it isn't needed?

Thanks.
