I'm sorry that dnfdragora isn't quite working properly on your system.
As one of the developers of dnfdragora and dnfdaemon, I'm aware of
some of those quirks, and myself and the other developer have been
trying to work on fixing these problems. It's difficult though, as
both of us are working on it in our spare time. We're committed to
improving it, but I have to find time for it, among everything else.

If you'd like to help, we'd appreciate it. The project is here:

Well, the rootless X thing is from gnome-session down, so that's a
GNOME thing. I'm aware that not all DEs do this, the work was
primarily done in GNOME.

How would you propose we fix this bug, as you call it?

Maybe different versions of the software positioned it differently?
