Removing AOSP apps from build
Eydolol
First, I'm trying to build an android platform from the android source code without basic apps (most of AOSP ones like LiveWallpapers, Calendar, Contacts, Calculator, Phone, Settings...).
In Order to do it, I'm modifying makefiles in /build/target/product/ , especially variable PRODUCT_PACKAGES which is containing all apps and libs that need to be built.
For example, i deleted the lines :
DeskClock \
Bluetooth \
Calculator \
Calendar \From PRODUCT_PACKAGES := in the file generic_no_telephony.mk
However, when i run my tablet after flashing etc, i still find some apps (like Email, Sound & Speech Recorder etc...) (i've already cleaned before rebuilding). If someone know if i have to delete something from other specific files, feel free to tell me ! I really want to do it properly.
Thank you !
Here you can see all the modifications i've made on makefiles in build/target/product/ :

packages should be installed, it's not the only way packages get
selected for installation. The LOCAL_REQUIRED_MODULES variable allows
modules to declare dependencies against other modules. Running
find . -name Android.mk | xargs grep LOCAL_REQUIRED_MODULES
on KitKat reveals that packages/apps/{Browser,Mms}/Android.mk both
depend on SoundRecorder, for example.
I don't see any such dependencies to the email app so your case is
likely to be more complicated. Futher digging into the related make
variables might be necessary.
