This only happened to come up because of a multilib glitch, but I'm
wondering why rdma-core is on the default Workstation image. It seems
unlikely that any of our users have Infiniband on their desktops.

Looking at the /var/log/anaconda files, it appears that rdma-core was
included in the LiveCD image I used to load the fedora workstation
that has it installed. I used the default Fedora Workstation
(Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-33-1.2.iso). If I mount the rootfs
inside the squashfs on the ISO, I can run:
# mkdir /mnt/livecd /mnt/squashfs /mnt/rootfs
# mount /slow/images/Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-33-1.2.iso /mnt/livecd
# mount /mnt/livecd/LiveOS/squashfs.img /mnt/squashfs
# mount /mnt/squashfs/LiveOS/rootfs.img /mnt/rootfs
# chroot /mnt/rootfs/ rpm -q rdma-core
rdma-core-31.0-1.fc33.x86_64
Might want to remove that from the build if it shouldn't be
installed.
