This should be a small list, are any of those actually included in the
base image?

Yes, the list is small but we can't be sure if it will change at some point, and analysing if we are having one of those cases on each change is too error prone, IMO.

Alternatively, which jobs use "normal" f28 images, could we switch
them to use "stabilized" f28 ?

fedora-stable has the required packages to run and build python3 packages. Currently it's missing some requirements for the jobs running on fedora 28 image although it's something we could work on.

Maybe I'm underestimating the cost of maintaining two different images for fedora, but my understanding is that the resources the extra image uses and the effort to maintain is workable. Please, correct me if i'm wrong.
