The packages in question come from this source code:

https://git.centos.org/summary/rpms!cockpit

The original sources are in rhel-7-extras

We have to de-brand / modify the packages, here are the commits for that:

https://git.centos.org/log/rpms!cockpit.git/c7-extras

If you look at the actual commit for the debranding, I added in the step
that normally gets rid of subscriptions .. (line 42 of the commit):

https://git.centos.org/commitdiff/rpms!cockpit.git/fc6cf2b2c9befc6fea436bc8c3341d4c46bbec91

Now we need to figure out WHY the require for subscription-manager is
still there.

Let the troubleshooting begin :)
