Thanks for the response. What exactly would I use for the "XXX" listed in your command for removing KDE? Previously I was instructed to remove the "arts" pkg with the theory that everything depends on that thus everything would be removed. I would like to remove all KDE elements and have my fink install as clean as possible pertaining to kde. ---------------------- > From: Kow K > Date: 1/22/03, 11:22 -0800 > Subject: Re: [Fink-users] Removing KDE > > To remove packages XXX forcefully, do the following: > > dpkg -r --ignore-depends XXX > > See "man dpkg" for more detail.
