this is not a very useful case as it pulls in rpm-build, gcc, gcc-c++ and a 
bunch of tolols that are needed in teh minimal build environment but not the 
minimal runtime environmnet a better group to use would be core  so 
yum install @core however it is more than is in the docker base images.  you 
could look at the kickstarts https://pagure.io/fedora-kickstarts/  there is a 
minimal arm image thats fairly small and minimal, would not be hard to make a 
x86 version of it.
