I wish I was wrong, but as far as I know you can't do it (yet?), although there have been many requests for it. To remove unneeded files you can use ctxtools --purge [--all] (texutill --purge[all] if you don't have the ruby variant installed yet) although I know that that's not quite the same. (I know some people in LaTeX world who use make files to copy/remove files.) Mojca
