Well, the majority of the packages are from the Enlightenment Foundation Libraries, and honestly it's probably the best way to deal with them IMHO (other applications can use the EFL as well and only install exactly what they need, remember that space is an issue on embedded devices).
Canola itself is divided in quite a few packages, but again, it's for good purposes AFAICT. Users can install only the plugins and themes they do want to use (apart from the base ones which are distributed together with Canola).
