[Ltib] Installing Part of a Package

Hello

Could anybody recommend a sensible method of only installing part of a
package? For example, some of the scenarios that I have been looking at
recently are, installing only agetty from the util-linux package,
installing only init from the sysvinit package and installing only the
compiled terminfo definitions from the ncurses package.

My ideas so far include...

1) Modifying the appropriate .spec file to change the install behaviour
or add a post-install clean-up.

2) Creating a platform specific .spec file to change the install
behaviour or add a post-install clean-up.

3) Adding a clean-up option to remove the unwanted files in the same way
as the various non-NFS deployment options.

4) Creating a new dummy package to build and install the subset of
packages that I require.

Any comments or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Mark
