I am having a strange exception each time a package is installed/upgraded with dnf!
However, the packages are well installed.
It seems like DNF is outputting some malformed JSON that causes thed raw_decode() function to raise an exception!

A screenshot of the backtrace: screenshot

DNF log:

# cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora release 23 (Twenty Three)

# cat /var/log/dnf.log

The /var/cache/dnf/tempfiles.json was malformed. I fixed it (it could be deleted even).
