Abstract

A system for building a package with a deterministic identifier for selective software component installation comprises an interface and a processor. The interface is to receive package configuration information. The processor is to retrieve build resources; determine a deterministic package identifier based at least in part on the build resources; build a package based at least in part on the package configuration information using the build resources; and provide the package. The package includes the deterministic package identifier. A selected software component from the package is installed on a target system.
