If you have looked at the dependency list found at the following:
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/curr...k7/README.html
Selectively installing only parts of the pkgsrc tree is fraught with all kinds of potential errors. If you go down this unrecommended path, you are likely to be starting over
many times.
If your concern is disk space, recognize that there are at least two options:
- Install the tree, build, & delete the tree (not recommended given that you may want to install something else later...).
- Connect an external USB drive, mount the pkgsrc tree there, & build. Once finished, disconnect the drive. If you need it later, reattach it.

How exactly would I go about doing that...

Familiarizing yourself with pkgsrc's documentation would be a good start:
