I added "install_weak_deps=False" in /etc/dnf/dnf.conf to just avoid installing the
recommended packages including qemu ones in this case - I am using docker / containers on
my system, and I'm not sure what I can safely remove as far as containers go.

I can understand enabling installation of the recommends for installs, but not for
upgrades where they can sneak in if you aren't paying attention or have automatic upgrades
enabled.
