Just some random sample:
- - after in-place upgrade I don't have ImageMagick installed
- - trying to remove fftw-libs-double attempts to remove quite a few necessary
  packages

I guess one can run `dnf autoremove` after in-place upgrade, but I would
still recommend reviewing the packages list (as in - not appropriate for
doing automatically as an upgrade step).

As for the default installation, installer follows this file:
https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-qubes-release/blob/main/comps/comps-dom0.xml
Note not all groups are installed, only those in environment qubes-xfce
(defined near end of the file). It probably can be reduced further if
you want to take a shot at it.
