Hmm ... plasma-desktop was already installed, dragged in by plasma-meta. So no need to reinstall it. Sadly trying to depclean after removing plasma-meta will get rid of a lot of packages, something I'm not keen to do: >>> These are the packages that would be unmerged: kde-plasma/plasma-browser-integration selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/plasma-vault selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/kdeplasma-addons selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/kscreen selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/kwrited selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/kwayland-integration selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/xembed-sni-proxy selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/plasma-workspace-wallpapers selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/bluedevil selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/kgamma selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/drkonqi selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/kwallet-pam selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/user-manager selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/xdg-desktop-portal-kde selected: 5.15.5-r1 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/kinfocenter selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/sddm-kcm selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/systemsettings selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/kmenuedit selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/ksshaskpass selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none sys-fs/cryfs selected: 0.9.9 protected: none omitted: none dev-libs/libpwquality selected: 1.4.0 protected: none omitted: none kde-frameworks/kxmlrpcclient selected: 5.57.0 protected: none omitted: none kde-frameworks/bluez-qt selected: 5.57.0 protected: none omitted: none sys-apps/accountsservice selected: 0.6.50-r1 protected: none omitted: none net-misc/socat selected: 1.7.3.2 protected: none omitted: none kde-plasma/khotkeys selected: 5.15.5 protected: none omitted: none sys-apps/xdg-desktop-portal selected: 1.2.0 protected: none omitted: none x11-misc/sddm selected: 0.18.0 protected: none omitted: none dev-libs/crypto++ selected: 7.0.0-r3 protected: none omitted: none All selected packages: =dev-libs/crypto++-7.0.0-r3 =kde-plasma/xembed-sni- proxy-5.15.5 =dev-libs/libpwquality-1.4.0 =kde-plasma/ksshaskpass-5.15.5 =kde- plasma/kinfocenter-5.15.5 =kde-plasma/kwallet-pam-5.15.5 =kde-plasma/ khotkeys-5.15.5 =kde-plasma/xdg-desktop-portal-kde-5.15.5-r1 =kde-plasma/ kgamma-5.15.5 =kde-plasma/drkonqi-5.15.5 =kde-plasma/systemsettings-5.15.5 =kde-frameworks/kxmlrpcclient-5.57.0 =kde-plasma/plasma-vault-5.15.5 =net- misc/socat-1.7.3.2 =kde-plasma/plasma-workspace-wallpapers-5.15.5 =x11-misc/ sddm-0.18.0 =kde-plasma/sddm-kcm-5.15.5 =kde-plasma/kwrited-5.15.5 =kde- plasma/kscreen-5.15.5 =kde-plasma/user-manager-5.15.5 =kde-plasma/plasma- browser-integration-5.15.5 =kde-plasma/kdeplasma-addons-5.15.5 =kde-plasma/ kwayland-integration-5.15.5 =kde-plasma/bluedevil-5.15.5 =kde-plasma/ kmenuedit-5.15.5 =sys-fs/cryfs-0.9.9 =sys-apps/accountsservice-0.6.50-r1 =sys- apps/xdg-desktop-portal-1.2.0 =kde-frameworks/bluez-qt-5.57.0 >>> 'Selected' packages are slated for removal. >>> 'Protected' and 'omitted' packages will not be removed.
