[SOLVED] I have installed Gnome, and I want to delete KDE session to get my space back.

[median tartan]

sudo pacman -Rscn KDE?

when I installed GNOME I had an alert that my disk space was running low and I want to get rid of KDE plus because the cursor and everything else is still brought from kde

[half cradle]

@median tartan -Rns

[median tartan]

Just rns

And then reboot?

[half cradle]

then -Scc

then sudo pacman -Qttdq | sudo pacman -Rns -

then reboot

[median tartan]

Is it one command

Or separate

From.the |

[half cradle]

that is all one command

[median tartan]

Oh

Alr

Just -Scc right

And then the following command you listed

[half cradle]

yes

[median tartan]

The packages will still remain right

If not it's fine just as long as network manager is built in for gnome

[half cradle]

what packages?

[median tartan]

Like firefox

Etc

Cus currently after I installed gnome from kde

It's all mixed together

[half cradle]

it shouldn't

[violet vigil]

Packages unrelated to KDE should remain installed

[median tartan]

@half cradle wait is it kde?

shows error

sudo pacman -Rns plasma?

or kde

with something ese

?plasma kde-applications

?

[half cradle]

@median tartan pacman -Q plasma-desktop plasma-meta

[median tartan]

[half cradle]

plasma-desktop 6.0.4-1
plasma-meta 6.0-2

[half cradle]

[median tartan]

[half cradle]

no, meta requires desktop and it will be removed when you remove meta

[median tartan]

After removing meta

[half cradle]

[median tartan]

sudo pacman -Scc?

-Scc command not found

[median tartan]

yes it also mentioned if I should remove unused repositories

[half cradle]
