Можно запретить некоторые каталоги или файлы устанавливать (распаковывать) из пакетов:
pacman.conf
NoExtract = file ...
All files listed with a NoExtract directive will never be extracted from a package into the filesystem. This can be useful when you don't want part of a package to be installed. For example, if your httpd root uses an index.php, then you would not want the index.html file to be extracted from the apache package. These files refer to files in the package archive, so do not include the leading slash (the RootDir) when specifying them. Shell-style glob patterns are allowed. It is possible to invert matches by prepending a file with an exclamation mark. Inverted files will result in previously blacklisted files being whitelisted again. Subsequent matches will override previous ones. A leading literal exclamation mark or backslash needs to be escaped.
