ovirt-engine package is now pulling in postgresql, dwh, websocket-proxy and other tools. Most of those services can run within separate systems / containers. We should introduce ovirt-engine-minimal subpackage with the bare minimum to run ovirt-engine and keep ovirt-engine as full blown setup rpm. This will allow to have unchanged behaviour when installing ovirt-engine and to use ovirt-engine-minimal for containerizing / podifing the engine.
Do we have plans to split userportal/backend to their own containers at some point? How does this bug align with these plans?

We should get rid of PostgreSQL RPM dependency when we move to SCL version of PG9.5/9.6, which is planned fo 4.2
The ovirt-containers project is now frozen. Simplifying that was my reason to work on this bug. If there other reasons to continue working on this, then please re-assign the bug. If not, then consider closing it.
I'm fine with closing this.
