Sure but you'd be breaking new ground so you'd need to be willing to hunt 
and peck to figure out what a minimum installation is for you and make sure
everything works.  Since no one (that I know of) has tried this yet, you
wouldn't get much help.  Generally speaking, questions about "I installed
foo package and when I run it, it tells me it can't find bar - What's wrong?"
are answered on this list by suggesting that the poster install everything.
At this point, there are way too many variations, too many questions, and
far too few people who can help answer these questions for the response to 
be otherwise at this point I'm afraid.  So, plunge ahead and report back
your findings.  The results may be useful and would be of interest to the 
list.

Good luck,
