 I'm not sure what you are saying here. This is about yum/dnf/etc. being
in the minimal install image for the Atomic host.
 Do you plan to ship rpm-ostree in that?
 I guess you are saying that you are planning on shipping more than just
ostree, so people can do the rpm packages diff thing? Or for other
features too?
 Are you sure this feature is worth bringing in the entire
libhawkey/librepo/libcomps/librpm chain?

 I guess at worst even if it's almost the same size, most of the users
will be happy if python isn't there.

 Not really. puppet is in ruby, cpanel is in perl. I'm not saying it's
sane, but users really hate python deps. ... so we'd probably want more
than "It's a sane language, and could be useful"
