MSI installation logfile

Good afternoon,
I have put this as a question on the forum, but even after half a year there is not answer, so I'm trying to get an answer of here.
As a new user of LibreOffice I only need a part of the application (Writer, Calc and Draw), and I also don’t want any file associations being done.

In order to obtain this, I launch the following on the command-line:
 C:\>msiexec /i C:\LibreOffice_4.4.2_Win_x86.msi /lv* C:\MSI_log.log REGISTER_NO_MSO_TYPES=1 REMOVE=gm_p_Base,gm_p_Impress,gm_p_Math

(The idea is to launch this command later, followed by a “/q” flag, as a part of another installation)

When I do this, the installer opens, and I click “Next” on every occasion, not making any modifications.

At the end, I get the message that everything has been done OK, and the same is shown in the logfile, but when I have a look at the computer, nothing is installed (there is even no LibreOffice directory under the “C:\Program Files (x86)” directory.

What can I do for solving this?
 Thanks

REMOVE=gm_p_Base,gm_p_Impress,gm_p_Math -- it means that you removed these (although they were not installed in the first place), and you installed nothing. Installer did what you instructed to do, it did nothing. It is not a bug.
