The list I provided contains packages from koji/dist-git/bugzilla

removing yum to the next release.
I think the hard deadline is when Python 2 gets removed from the distro

ok. Based on what I know now I think we can do it, but we really need
mock bootstapping to work and koji to have a way to use it for epel
