I ask because recently I wanted two shlibs: wnck.so and rsvg.so (they are provided by x11-toolkits/py-gnome-desktop). I didn't need all the accompanying baggage (half of GNOME it seems), but it dragged in over 80 other packages. In the end I let it have its way, copied the libs to a safe place, then uninstalled all the packages and copied the libs back again.
