This reduces the package size considerably, with a similar run time.

Ad-hoc build is here.

Glancing at the numbers, we find for el-7/x86_64 (size in MB, packaging time in seconds)

old: 327M, 458s
new: 275M, 369s

and for ubuntu-12.04/amd64:

old: 324M, 299s
new: 270M, 248s

This reduces the package size considerably, with a similar run time.
