marble & marble-qt #1787

Also another issue (according to me) regarding plasma desktop is kde desktop apps bundle containing 2 of some apps. For eg. there are two versions of the marble virtual globe app: one from kde and one from Qt. I am also not able to remove those apps via the swupd utility. Thanks for the response.

I also want to uninstall packages like KMouth, Akonadi, KWrite, Kiten, Cantata etc. but it's not possible.

some of these are core parts of what defines KDE to be KDE....

ahem ahem... bloatware :wink:

fenrus75 commented 4 years ago

yeah yeah some are also mostly the library (akonadi) with a thin shim UI.... the library is linked into the core of KDE stuff so you're not saving much

having said that I'm all for splitting the bundle more, just need to do it smart so that we don't end up with a bad experience (not enough apps that the KDE folks would consider essential to KDE)

Yes that's something I noticed when searching the bundle files in KDE's desktop apps. KDE does seem to be somewhat heavier than GNOME even though those apps and libs weigh less. Can't blame those apps then.
