Hi all,

I needed to install compiler and libraries to install nessusd.

Now that Its running, is it safe to remove all of them?

If you need any details, please ask...

Yes. Your system will actually be a little safer if you remove them. Some worms have depended for their propagation on being able to use a local compiler.
