The glusterfs RPM already is the glusterfs-common RPM that you want.

If you look, you'll see that the other things  in the glusterfs RPM 
really aren't that big; moving the translators to a different RPM 
doesn't buy you anything.

Again, you can't second guess which translators are "defaults". Server 
admins configure volumes and options and the client-side could need any 
of them.
