Hi Bob

Why not use joyents pkgsrc. Install only apache.

I did this by accident before when I selected to install 'subversion' (to get a client) and was surprised to see it install Apache. At the time I thought that it might conflict with some Apache offered by OmniOS.

Pksrc is indeed quite a lot of packages. It is a different package dependency system than IPS so it is possible to create excessive/conflicting installs since there is some overlap.

Another possibility is to create one's own IPS repository with packages built from source code (e.g. SFE pkgbuild https://sourceforge.net/projects/pkgbuild/) and published as described at the bottom of http://omnios.omniti.com/wiki.php/Packaging. This requires more work, but could benefit the community.

The various SFE package collections I see targeting OmniOS are small.
