It'd be nice to rebase this to F30 or even F31. F29 is not interesting
anymore.

A lot of the stuff in those images seems completely unnecessary:
device-mapper, device-mapper-libs, dracut, cpio, glibc-all-langpacks,
grubby, systemd-bootchart, systemd-udev.

Yep, that sounds like a good start. I suspect that F30 might be already
better in this regard.
