True, but in my experience the bulk of the X install is the client tools and libraries anyway, so unless disk space is really tight you might as well install it all anyway and just set the runlevel to run a command-line login.

That would be a lot easier and faster than trying to figure out which packages need to be installed and which ones don't.
