Create another package for those files.

I would suggest `ptxdist newpackage file` which seems to be the template for exactly that usecase. Of course you could go with every other template and adapt it or create a package from scratch, but the 'file' template gives you a very simple .in rule and a .make rule with just the targetinstall stage active, you don't need more to just install some files to the target.
