My minimal install did take about 500MB to install from whatever anaconda 
gave me, and I've managed to trim about 120MB from that. However, I chose 
only English installed during Anaconda, and _none_ of the 120MB I have 
removed came from deleting languages.

Can you show me where other languages might be hiding, such that I can show 
a user how to install that one language they want, then nuke all others? 
(This of course should work for any language, not just English, or I 
flat-out refuse to do it.)

Thanks,
