This is the size on the disk, the compressed size is around 70MB.

WIthout looking in to too much details, I would say the next big thing
we have is python3 (~50MB) that we need because of dnf. I think there
are still a few things that we can improve for example we have 7.4 MB
of timezone info and we have around 5 MB for the dejavu font which I
don't think are needed in the container context :-)

We have the fedora-minimal image that is using microdnf (no python
needed) which is 136 MB (40MB compressed) big.
