this will work but if you need plugins they will be missing as only the
linked libraries will be automatically integrated.

check packagegroup-core-qt4e.bb and remove :
        qt4-embedded-demos \
        qt4-embedded-examples \
        qt-demo-init \
        qt4-embedded-assistant \

(and also the plugins & libs you may not need)

FWIW I'm using this to build a quite full featured qt4e base image :
RDEPENDS_append += " \
	qt4-embedded \
	"

QT_INSTALL = " \
	libqt-embedded3support4 \
	libqt-embeddedclucene4 \
	libqt-embeddedcore4 \
	libqt-embeddedgui4 \
	libqt-embeddednetwork4 \
	libqt-embeddedsvg4 \
	libqt-embeddedsql4 \
	libqt-embeddedxml4 \
	libqt-embeddedxmlpatterns4 \
	libqt-embeddedwebkit4 \
	libqt-embeddedscripttools4 \
	libqt-embeddedtest4 \
	libqt-embeddedmultimedia4 \
	libqt-embeddedhelp4 \
	libqt-embeddeddeclarative4 \
	libqt-embeddeddbus4 \
	libqt-embeddedphonon4 \
	\
	qt4-embedded-fonts-ttf-vera \
	qt4-embedded-fonts-ttf-dejavu \
	qt4-embedded-plugin-mousedriver-tslib \
	qt4-embedded-plugin-sqldriver-sqlite2 \
	qt4-embedded-plugin-sqldriver-sqlite \
	qt4-embedded-plugin-phonon-backend-gstreamer \
	qt4-embedded-plugin-iconengine-svgicon \
	qt4-embedded-plugin-imageformat-gif \
	qt4-embedded-plugin-imageformat-ico \
	qt4-embedded-plugin-imageformat-jpeg \
	qt4-embedded-plugin-imageformat-mng \
	qt4-embedded-plugin-imageformat-svg \
	qt4-embedded-plugin-imageformat-tiff \
	sqlite3 \
"

QWT_INSTALL = " \
	qwt-e \
"

IMAGE_INSTALL += "\
	${QT_INSTALL} \
	${QWT_INSTALL} \
"

and I add this when I want the examples :
IMAGE_INSTALL += "\
	qt4-embedded-demos qt4-embedded-examples qt-demo-init \
	qwt-e-examples \
"
(qt-demo-init is a homemade init script).
