The component selector was removed in LibreOffice 4.2 [1] because of 
problems it created for users, without any sizable benefit. Note that, 
as others described, LibreOffice does not consist of different 
applications; so the pre-existing function was only removed small 
configuration files and shortcuts, which didn't save space, but just 
disabled respective menu items and functionality.

If, however, you definitely need to disable those, and you understand 
the implications like possible absent/failing functionality (like 
unusable mail merge in Writer, when you didn't "install" Base), you 
still can do that - either manually, by removing the configuration 
files, as explained at [2], or by using installation arguments - see 
Msiexec use examples at [3]; the relevant features (that you would use 
either with ADDLOCAL or REMOVE) would be gm_p_Calc, gm_p_Draw, 
gm_p_Impress, gm_p_Base, gm_p_Math, gm_p_Wrt.
