Naturally doing a emerge unmerge kde does not get the job done. What is a easy way to do this? If you installed the kde meta-package, then all other kde packages will be installed as dependencies of that, so you can remove them with emerge -C kde emerge -a depclean You can list all installed kde packages with qpkg -g kde-base or equery list | grep kde-base but removing them all is a bad idea, some of them, like kdelibs, may also be dependencies pf packages that are not part of kde-base. You could also add -kde to USE and do emerge -uavDN world, to make sure any packages compiled with optional KDE support (and dependencies) have it removed. -- Neil Bothwick Mac screen message: Like, dude, something went wrong. signature.asc Description: PGP signature
