Cannot build test image using ansible-bender

[betulependule]

What happened? What is the problem?

Trying to build a test image using make build-test-image (as described in CONTRIBUTING.md) in order to run tests results in the following error:

There was an error during execution: no python interpreter was found in the base image "fedora:latest", you can specify the path via CLI option --python-interpreter
make: *** [Makefile:9: build-test-image] Error 2

Makefile should be edited so that make build-test-image and subsequent make check-in-container work. As far as I can tell, there is no public image of Fedora containing a Python interpreter available. As suggested by nforro, an option is to create a local image of Fedora using podman and subsequently install a Python interpreter, but it would be a lazy solution.

A cleaner solution would be to avoid needing to use ansible-bender and create a local image with ansible-playbook (use packit/base:fedora) similarly to how's it's done in packit.

It's possible to run tests as described in plans/README.md using tmt for the time being.
