There isn't an easy way to "delete everything thats not needed in a
system-wide install". Ideally you should only need the "sage" script and
the SAGE_LOCAL tree, but that is currently not the case.
In the binary packaging I'm excluding the following:
- exclude: '**.pyc'
- exclude: '**.pyo'
- exclude: upstream/**
- exclude: src/doc/output/doctrees/**
- exclude: src/build/lib.*/**
- exclude: src/build/temp.*/**
- exclude: logs/**
- exclude: config.log
TODOs are at least
* The Cython debugging information should be installed in SAGE_SHARE or so
* Ditto for the documentation (html+pdf output, not the intermediate
doctrees)
* Doctests that rely on the Sage source tree should be removed / made
optional (e.g. sagedev)
The 6.3GB are probably a few big databases, there isn't much that you can
do about that besides not installing them...
