+Environment Variables for Module Selection during Image Creation
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+The following environment variable is used to select module streams to be
+enabled during an image build on RHEL8.  Any existing stream for the given
+module is first disabled prior to enabling the specified stream.
+
+#### DIB\_DNF\_MODULE\_STREAMS
+This is a space-separated list of module streams to enable prior to any
+RPMs being installed.

+Image Build Module Selection Example
+------------------------------------
+When using Train on RHEL8.2, one must select the appropriate virt and
+container-tools module streams:
+
+DIB_DNF_MODULE_STREAMS='virt:8.2 container-tools:2.0'
