generellay the dependecies are getting bigger with every release
it should be possible to install a leightweigt system

yes, hard-disk are getting cheaper but time!
on the other hand running 20-30 Fedora VMs on a SAN-Storage
disk space is not so cheap as at home and the overhead multiplies

means: i like to remove everything that is not active used because
distupgrades and normal updates are much bigger and especially on
servers everything which is not installed is not vulnerable
