Oleg,

Yes, you are right. At the moment all docker containers are packaged into a
single rpm package. Yes, it would be great to split them into several
one-by-one rpms, but it is not my current priority. I'll definitely think
of this when I'll be moving so called "late" packages (which depend on
other packages) into "perestroika". Yet another thing is that eventually
all those packages and containers will be "artifacts" and will be treated
differently according to their nature. That will be the time when we'll be
thinking of a docker registry and other stuff like this.
