You would have to manually delete what you don't want.

You can try installing the dpkg.dsl and use that to remove only the deb's that are installed, but you might still kill your system. In root terminal> apt-get --purge (name of package) or if you want to do it by gui you can install synaptic. Make sure you read up on what ever your trying to remove to see if it is safe, it's your system so it's up to you. When i did mine i used a test install first to see what i could remove with out messing things up to much, once i had a good enough list i wiped it and made a real install that i wanted to use.
