You can do a "minimal" install and then install just the applications 
you want. That will draw in the packages that those applications requre 
only. That will leave you with the smallest install possible to suit 
your needs.

To do a minimal install, when the main anaconda (install) window 
appears, click where it says "Gnome Desktop" and scroll down to find 
"minimal". Note that a minimal install is very minimal. Expect to take 
some time to find the packages you want/need.
