Graphical Environments & Desktops • installing another desktop - remove kde

To be fair, I haven't tested this in years, but I remember that it was not a success. Perhaps our friend above would be kind and test it and post the results.

I do believe that checking apt log would be the only option if one wanted to surgically remove every package.

I tried to simulate this with apt-get -s install task-kde-desktop, which worked just fine (and TIL you don't have to be root to run simulations) but removal simulations don't work if the package is not installed, so apt-get -s purge didn't work, which kinda ended my experiment

edit: I tried it for real but apt-listbugs scared me off of the project. I'm doing this on Sid, so there's a chance for breakage.
