Just FYI, I managed to do this for picard (Fedora) and picard-freeworld (RPM
Fusion) packages because of ffmpeg issues.  This was possible because the
ffmpeg functionality was restricted to a single shared library:

# rpm -ql picard-freeworld 
/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/picard/musicdns/avcodec.so

It's a bit of a pain, I have one spec that compiles without ffmpeg on Fedora,
then I take the same spec on RPM Fusion but modify it to add BR: ffmpeg-devel
strip out everything but the single shared library.  But it works.  

If linphone can be modularized the same way, that's a possible solution and I
could help with that.
