Ian Wienand 5f47584196 yum-minimal: use DNF tools on host The latest Debian bullseye release doesn't provide yum any more, only DNF. This breaks the minimal builds that are using on-host yum tools to start the chroot. Probe for yumdownloader, and if it's not there, use DNF. Note this requires "dnf download" which may not be packaged. See I21cfbd3935e48be4b92591ea36c7eed301230753 for a sample work-around that installs this plugin in the nodepool-builder container.

Image building tools for OpenStack
==================================

``diskimage-builder`` is a flexible suite of components for building a
wide-range of disk images, filesystem images and ramdisk images for
use with OpenStack.

This repository has the core functionality for building such images,
both virtual and bare metal. Images are composed using `elements`;
while fundamental elements are provided here, individual projects have
the flexibility to customise the image build with their own elements.

For example::

  $ DIB_RELEASE=bionic disk-image-create -o ubuntu-bionic.qcow2 vm ubuntu

will create a bootable Ubuntu Bionic based ``qcow2`` image.

``diskimage-builder`` is useful to anyone looking to produce
customised images for deployment into clouds. These tools are the
components of `TripleO <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/TripleO>`__
that are responsible for building disk images. They are also used
extensively to build images for testing OpenStack itself, particularly
with `nodepool
<https://docs.openstack.org/infra/system-config/nodepool.html>`__.
Platforms supported include Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL and Fedora.

Full documentation, the source of which is in ``doc/source/``, is
published at:

* https://docs.openstack.org/diskimage-builder/latest/
