Safe to remove apks from Sense Roms

So, before flashing a Sense Rom (InsertCoin or other) you can remove a few apks from the rom's zip if you don't need them. Save time when flashing and also on 1st boot. I will provide a list of apks that are safe to remove. You just delete the files from rom.zip/system/app

Or you can delete them after flashing if you already flashed a rom, if you are s-off you can do this with the phone on, if you are s-on you have to go to recovery and mount /system and /sd-ext.
I recommend you use for this Android Commander

HTC Stocks:

com.htc.StockWidget.apk
DCSStock.apk
Stock.apk

LiveWallpapers.apk
LiveWallpapersPicker.apk
MagicSmokeWallpapers.apk

HTC Sense - if you prefer launcherpro or adw or whatever and dont need htc sense you can delete
Rosie.apk

You can delete any apk from /system that has the word widget into his name if you don't need it

You can also remove from sd-ext/.systemapp and from sd-ext/.lib the corresponding libs for the apks you removed.
But you need to edit the updater-script.
For example, you don't neet HTC Premium Navigations (Locations).
you go insinde the zip/sd-ext/.systemapp and you delete.

HtcLaputa.apk
HtcLaputaInstaller.apk
HtcLaputaWidget.apk
LocationPickerLaputa.apk
also now that you removed the apks you also don't need their libs
so we go insinde rom.zip/sd-ext/.lib and delete:

libLaputaEngine.so
libLaputaLbJni.so
libLaputaLbProviderJni.so
libLaputaLogJni.so
Ok now that we removed those files we need to edit out updater-script since those files were symlinked.
So we open in notepad++ the following file:
rom.zip/META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script
and remove the symlink lines with those files. in this particular case

symlink("/system/sd/.lib/libLaputaEngine.so","/system/lib/libLaputaEngine.so");
symlink("/system/sd/.lib/libLaputaLbJni.so","/system/lib/libLaputaLbJni.so");
symlink("/system/sd/.lib/libLaputaLbProviderJni.so","/system/lib/libLaputaLbProviderJni.so");
symlink("/system/sd/.lib/libLaputaLogJni.so","/system/lib/libLaputaLogJni.so");


symlink("/system/sd/.systemapp/HtcLaputa.apk","/system/app/HtcLaputa.apk");
symlink("/system/sd/.systemapp/HtcLaputaInstaller.apk","/system/app/HtcLaputaInstaller.apk");
symlink("/system/sd/.systemapp/HtcLaputaWidget.apk","/system/app/HtcLaputaWidget.apk");
symlink("/system/sd/.systemapp/LocationPickerLaputa.apk","/system/app/LocationPickerLaputa.apk");

Take care that not all apks from sd-ext have special libs. some like ereader.apk don't have so you just have to delete the apks.
