I’m curious why you list these as “cruft” packages? chrony firewalld iperf NetworkManager-libnm They are all removed as per of the “setup” command you provided. You remove the default NTP service, you disable the default firewall (although you do install iptables-service in base.txt) and you hobble NetworkManager. Also, I’m sure it’s helpful for you, but setting all the default CentOS repos to ones in France as a baseurl means that anyone using it would get that too, so anyone thinking of forking the repo, don’t replace the CentOS repo files. The mirrorlist url should give you geographically close mirrors. -- Jonathan Billings
