Off the top of my head, one thing it needs an online access for, is
determining what Fedora release corresponds to the "master" branch.

It does that by querying Koji (or maybe pkgdb2 now, not sure)

There are probably many things which won't require an internet
connection, and we could make these work if they don't already.

But for example, how do you propose solving the point I mentioned?
