Guys, Removing kde4 from a test box to work with Trinity, I ran across a few kde4 files that looked like they were orphans. I had already removed kde4 with: pacman -R kde gtk-kde4 kdebindings-smoke kdeplasma-addons-libs kmldonkey konq-plugins kopete-cryptography qtcurve-kde4 yakuake Checking /usr/share/autostart, there were still files present. So checking ownership I found: 15:51 supersff:~> l /usr/share/autostart/ total 40 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Feb 17 15:32 . drwxr-xr-x 404 root root 12288 Feb 17 15:47 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4417 Jan 27 08:47 kaddressbookmigrator.desktop -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10584 Jan 19 16:04 nepomukserver.desktop -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 908 Dec 9 02:51 polkit-kde-authentication-agent-1.desktop 15:51 supersff:~> pmq -o /usr/share/autostart/nepomukserver.desktop /usr/share/autostart/nepomukserver.desktop is owned by kdebase-runtime 4.6.0-1 15:52 supersff:~> pmq -o /usr/share/autostart/kaddressbookmigrator.desktop /usr/share/autostart/kaddressbookmigrator.desktop is owned by kdepim-runtime 4.4.10-1 15:52 supersff:~> pmq -o /usr/share/autostart/polkit-kde-authentication-agent-1.desktop /usr/share/autostart/polkit-kde-authentication-agent-1.desktop is owned by polkit-kde 0.99.0-1 Trying to remove the packages listed dependencies I thought would have already been removed when I removed kde: 15:52 supersff:~> sudo pacman -R kdebase-runtime kdepim-runtime polkit-kde checking dependencies... error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: kcoloredit: requires kdebase-runtime :: kdebindings-python: requires kdepim-runtime :: kdepim-libkdepim: requires kdepim-runtime :: kdiff3: requires kdebase-runtime :: kfax: requires kdebase-runtime :: kgrab: requires kdebase-runtime :: kgraphviewer: requires kdebase-runtime :: kiconedit: requires kdebase-runtime :: kpovmodeler: requires kdebase-runtime :: kwebkitpart: requires kdebase-runtime I guess if they are just dependent on the kdebase-runtime, then they could have been separately installed. The big thing that caught my eye were the kde44 version on the kdepim files when I went to remove all the dependencies: 15:52 supersff:~> sudo pacman -R kdebase-runtime kdepim-runtime polkit-kde kcoloredit kdebindings-python kdepim-libkdepim kdiff3 kfax kgrab kgraphviewer kiconedit kpovmodeler kwebkitpart checking dependencies...

Just thought I would run this by the experts. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
