hello all,

im not even sure if packages would be the correct term, but its the best i could think of.

what i would like to do is remove stuff from kde like Kscd and Kaboodle. is this possible and if so is it going to cause dependency issues?

i am running redhat 9.

thanks in advance.

Packages is the right term. You can remove them using the following command:
rpm -e packagename

If removing the package would cause dependecy problems then rpm will tell you about it.

Redhat also has a gui frontend for rpm called kpackage which you might want to try.

Hope this helps.

Most of the KDE programs are packaged within e.g. kdegames, kdeutils, etc. which makes it hard (maybe impossible?) to remove just one KDE application without removing the complete package.
