If you installed the kde meta-package, then all other kde packages will |
| 8 |
be installed as dependencies of that, so you can remove them with |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
emerge -C kde |
| 11 |
emerge -a depclean |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
You can list all installed kde packages with |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
qpkg -g kde-base |
| 16 |
or |
| 17 |
equery list | grep kde-base |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
but removing them all is a bad idea, some of them, like kdelibs, may |
| 20 |
also be dependencies pf packages that are not part of kde-base. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
You could also add -kde to USE and do emerge -uavDN world, to make sure |
| 23 |
any packages compiled with optional KDE support (and dependencies) have |
| 24 |
it removed. |
