Your are right.. Existing "installConfig" does care of installing the
module binaries of the configs.  But since I am currently handicapped
with an unsuccessful build, I don't know if all the modules are
installed as a part of the config dependencies. So if that is a
redundant step we may eliminate those modules that are installed as
config dependencies into the "repository" directory

Note that we still need to list those modules that are copied into the
lib, lib/ext, lib/ext/endorsed dirs. We should also list the modules
for schemas.
