Either Fedora current or a way to download the required > packages/tools. I use the published registry.fedoraproject.org/fedora base container. We chose to use the latest container for security reasons, to make sure we had all the current security errata etc. It probably won't change often enough to be an issue, but it means that I can't guarantee an exact reproduction of a given trybot container. Even if the containers were published, the trybot's container includes a full copy of the glibc git tree at that moment, and we're hoping that there will eventually be many trybots - not just mine - so consider the cost of moving all that data around vs just running your own trybot ;-) Note that I'm not defending my choice here, just explaining it. I'm open to new ideas and tweaks.
