Maybe focus on the way this type of install would be used.  You install the
<foo> class and then manually add only the packages you need.

This brings to mind the following words:

    o Fundamental

    o Elemental

    o Foundational

    o Infrastructural (though "infrastructure" is a relatively overloaded
      term these days)

    o Additive (thinking of what you need to do to get a useful configuration)

    o Add-On (ditto)

Do any of these terms strike a chord with anyone?
