The way we've done this in Fedora is to build these sorts of pieces as
subpackages, and tweak the build process to build multiple versions of some
of the packages -- for example, we have asterisk-voicemail-plain,
asterisk-voicemail-odbc, and asterisk-voicemail-imap.  You can choose any
one of those three subpackages (as they each conflict with the other two).

The complete list of subpackages we currently build is below.  (For the
sake of this conversation, chan_dahdi is built as a subpackage as well.)

asterisk-alsa
asterisk-calendar
asterisk-corosync
asterisk-curl
asterisk-dahdi
asterisk-devel
asterisk-fax
asterisk-festival
asterisk-ices
asterisk-jabber
asterisk-jack
asterisk-ldap
asterisk-ldap-389
asterisk-lua
asterisk-minivm
asterisk-misdn
asterisk-mobile
asterisk-mysql
asterisk-odbc
asterisk-ooh323
asterisk-oss
asterisk-portaudio
asterisk-postgresql
asterisk-radius
asterisk-skinny
asterisk-snmp
asterisk-sqlite
asterisk-tds
asterisk-unistim
asterisk-voicemail
asterisk-voicemail-imap
asterisk-voicemail-odbc
