Disclosed is a method, data processing system and article of manufacture. The data processing system is operatively coupled to a data processing system usable memory tangibly embodying a software product installation package (SPIP) comprising software features (SFs) and software components (SCs) associated with the SFs. The data processing system implemented method is for generating a set of installation merge packages (IMPs). The data processing system implemented method includes associating a generated set of software feature merge packages (SFMPs) with a set of SFs selected from the SPIP, identifying a shared SC, the identified shared SC being shared by the selected set of SFs, inserting the identified shared SC into a generated common merge package (CMP)m associating the generated CMP with the generated set of SFMPs, and inserting the generated CMP and the generated set of SFMPs into the IMPs.
