OK, for whatever unknown reason,
/etc/yum.repos.d/google-chrome.repo had
the 'enabled' flag set to 0. Setting it to 1 allowed dnf to update
Chrome to version 118.0.5993.70--and the pink button is gone.
I see the same thing on another similarly behaving system, with
the mod
date on the file as July 26. There is an 'rpmnew' version of that
file
(dated 2/3/2022) with the same flag set to 0, but with another
line that
says "skip_if_unavailable=True" This line is not present in the
currently used file.
Also, don't forget that you have to restart chrome after updating or
you'll continue to see the notification.
There is this bug
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2170839
documenting a defect with the google-chrome F38 repositories, but the
last entry in the bug specifies that the issue has been fixed, so the
update issues reported here may have just been a temporary glitch.

Steve
