For /libraries/ this is an unneeded worry.  Having extra libraries
on your machine wont hurt anything (except use up space, but disk is
cheap).  If there were additional services that were required then
I might start agreeing with your concerns here.

True...  Except in the case of gnucash you don't need the FULL
environment, just the libraries.  ;)
