Maybe it is, because I get the following things that would also be
installed:

etc/bash_completion.d
etc/systemd
usr/include/systemd
usr/lib/sysctl.d
usr/lib/systemd/system-generators
usr/lib/systemd/user
usr/share/man/man1
usr/share/man/man3
usr/share/man/man5
usr/share/polkit-1
usr/share/polkit-1/actions
usr/share/systemd

 Yes, I am referring to empty directories and I can see how you might
 see it as cosmetic, but would you consider not creating the
 directories?

Ok, that may do it.

One more thing though, thinking about it, is that we will need the
systemd-tmpfiles tool because udev is not going to support the
/lib/udev/devices directory any longer for creating custom devices, so
you might want to still build and install all of the parts of that for a
standalone udev build if doing so doesn't bring in more dependencies.

Thanks,

William
