I don't know if it's a basic thing to use virt-customize or guestfish on Fedora Server, but as soon as I started to dive into using Fedora Cloud images as containers I needed to use both, but had to install them first. Not a big deal, but I wonder if integration of products improves if libguestfs-tools is already available on Server?

Seems reasonable to me. I would have thought it was already part of the @virtualization[-headless] group on Fedora Server (not in front of my computer to check comps.xml). If it is, then it's already at least optionally available for install.
Are you suggesting it should be part of the standard install, to assist with virtualized deployments? If so, I think there's a group for that as well that has libvirt/VMware guest helpers and the like. We could discuss adding it there.

Yes, although I'm more asking. It did pull in a pile of other things, so it's deceptive just looking at libguestfs-tools at 57KiB. I guess it's more of a perception issue than anything else.

So let's take a look at that dependency tree and see if any of it is not strictly necessary. With the new weak dependencies available now, we may be able to trim that down.

Is this maybe something for a future "virt server node" role?
