The best answer would be both. Some packages, like OOo require Java at
runtime. Packages that only need a library from a program, you can
probably get away with removing all but the exact library needed.
However, this is all trial and error territory.
Thanks, Archaic. I've received enough "Can't find lib{blah, blah, blah}.
Exiting Error 1" to understand what you're saying. :-)
This is one that about which I had thought. If a program crashes because
it can't find something I have removed, I'll just have to 'grep' through
the package lists of those applications that I've removed.
