The current folks package: libfolks25 is installing some back-ends that are used only in the developer environment. We should avoid install these files.

Installing theses files causes the folks to create all available backends in memory when initialized, this consume memory and cpu, we should avoid that.

These are the files that I think we should not install with the main package:

Dummy backend end library
=======================

This backend is used by folks to run some unit tests, its store all information in memory, and there is no real use for a real app.

/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/folks/42/backends/dummy
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/folks/42/backends/dummy/dummy.so
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libfolks-dummy.so.25.17.0
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libfolks-dummy.so.25

Key-file backend and library
======================

This backend uses a "key-file" like a "ini" file to store contact information, is not fully implemented and the apps should avoid to use that.

/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/folks/42/backends/key-file
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/folks/42/backends/key-file/key-file.so
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libfolks.so.25.17.0
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libfolks.so.25
