Lee,

Additional notes:

The rpm command given must be used when in the directory with the LO
rpm or have a full path to that directory specified. The Redhad Package
Manager (rpm) simply installs from an accessible file as opposed to
downloading and installing from an external repository.

The duplication of LO results because the source is not a Fedora repo. 

I am a Mageia user unfamiliar with dnf (even though it is available as
an alternative package manager), but there is likely a way to add the
LO repo to your system so that it will automatically update from there
(if that is what you want). Michael may know how, or you can ask in the
Fedora forums or start with this:

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/adding-or-removing-software-repositories-in-fedora/

I have not read carefully, but it should be a good start.

Best,
Roy
