I wonder how best to list that.  Upstream is "dtc" and I forget what
it's called package-wise on Fedora systems and similar.  But since I
want to avoid making a distribution specific list maybe I need to add a
few words to be clear it's a tool list and not a package list.  Doing
"apt-cache search dtc" shows device-tree-compiler for example and I bet
the dnf equivalent does too.

Note that for example guestmount comes from libguestfs-tools on
Debian/similar systems.
