The idea is that there are 
chromium-libs-media-freeworld and chromium-libs-media that can be freely
exchanged:

$ rpm -qa | grep chromium
chromium-libs-media-freeworld-60.0.3112.101-1.fc26.x86_64
chromium-common-60.0.3112.101-1.fc26.x86_64
chromium-libs-60.0.3112.101-1.fc26.x86_64
chromium-60.0.3112.101-1.fc26.x86_64

$ dnf install chromium-libs-media
...
Installed:
  chromium-libs-media.x86_64 60.0.3112.101-1.fc26

$ dnf remove chromium-libs-media-freeworld
...
Removed:
  chromium-libs-media-freeworld.x86_64 60.0.3112.101-1.fc26

$ rpm -qa | grep chromium
chromium-common-60.0.3112.101-1.fc26.x86_64
chromium-libs-60.0.3112.101-1.fc26.x86_64
chromium-libs-media-60.0.3112.101-1.fc26.x86_64
chromium-60.0.3112.101-1.fc26.x86_64

...

I believe that's the point. What's wrong with that?

No idea, how are you installing?

How are you installing? I can install just fine.

This will eventually get scripted.
