How do I remove a dependency of a package?

I created a new package using the catkin_create_pkg command that depends on std_msgs rospy roscpp. If I want to remove the roscpp dependency from this package, how can it be done? Can it be done through a terminal command ideally? If not, should it be done by editing package.xml and CMakeLists.txt or something like that?

I am using ROS1 noetic on Ubuntu 20.04 kernel 5.8.0-53-generic

AFAIK, no.

Just remove them from package.xml and CMakeLists.txt as you described and the next time you are building it, catkin won't check for those packages.
