Hi,
i want to use the classy classes/templates but not the css that comes with it
so i set classy as base theme and some library-overrides on every css library that comes with it
but when i activate my new sub theme my website crashes with the error message "A unexpected error occurred. Please try again later"
what am i missing?

Found my 2 errors
1. a typing error
2. only override librarys that are loaded
classy seems to specify more librarys than it loads by default, if you try to unload them your site crashes because it can't find them

Heres how I solved it - don't use Classy as a base theme, just copy all it's templates to your theme and forget about trying to wrangle with it's unwanted libraries. Classy templates won't change during D8 life cycle so this is totally OK and won't cause you any issues.
