Using upstream images requires less maintenance on our end. Each project maintains the tool they specialize in. They also build much faster since most of the things we need are already installed.

Final image is 180 Mb compared to 241 Mb of the previous image.

This requires less maintenance on our end. Each project maintains the
tool they specialize in.

@Zlopez @gridhead @GregSutcliffe Any of you folks have some cycles to take a look at and test these changes?

@jwflory We rather build from Fedora containers as we already knew what is within them.

As @Zlopez mentioned, I advise against using upstream images.

Especially when we know that this code uses pkg_resources, which was obsoleted by Python 3.12, I would suggest front-porting the code and not using an older Python 3.x version.
