+1. This would also simplify production of the minimal CD (compile all 
packages as a side effect of building the full CD, then install only 
needed ones), and reduce the size of the main CD (because we don't want 
to ship, e.g., headers for gtk+ - so let's put them into a separate 
package that is discarded in the ISO creation process).

The first step would be to convert everything to DESTDIR-style 
installation, and then adapt some existing (Slackware?) scripts to 
package the result. IMHO, RPM would be overkill here.
