Comment (by mojca):

 Wonderful, thank you very much. Now, I would probably:
 * Remove all the installed man pages
 * Remove all the header files
 * Remove the part of documentation that we are allowed to remove.
 * Remove the binaries which we likely won't need, as well as things like
 static library etc. (We could probably build static binaries, but that's a
 different/unrelated topic anyway.)
 But let's see what others think first before doing any of that.
