History
Carlos Goncalves f909000e5a Uninstall linux-firmware and linux-firmware-whence 
linux-firmware and linux-firmware-whence (meta package for mostly iwl
firmwares) packages account for approx. 289 M install size on a F30
system, and linux-firmware for approx. 176 M on CentOS 7. Users needing
these firmwares are eventually baremetal users and are not looking for a
very minimal operating system base install like virtual image users are.
Thus, a non-minimal OS element is better suited for them. Alternatively,
it could be later considered a dedicated firmware element.

This is inline with I8ce65e1d357d15e8ed8995ad1dcaea02bbd1986f.

===========
yum-minimal
===========
Base element for creating minimal yum-based images.

This element is incomplete by itself, you'll want to use the centos-minimal
or fedora-minimal elements to get an actual base image.

Use of this element will require 'yum' and 'yum-utils' to be installed on
Ubuntu and Debian. Nothing additional is needed on Fedora or CentOS.

If you wish to have DHCP networking setup for eth0 & eth1 via
/etc/sysconfig/network-config scripts/ifcfg-eth[0|1], set the
environment variable `DIB_YUM_MINIMAL_CREATE_INTERFACES` to `1`.

If you wish to build from specific mirrors, set
``DIB_YUM_MINIMAL_BOOTSTRAP_REPOS`` to a directory with the ``.repo``
files to use during bootstrap and build.  The repo files should be
named with a prefix ``dib-mirror-`` and will be removed from the final
image.
