Hi everyone!

Today I tried to install KDE alongside Gnome to give it a try on Fedora on something else than a virtual machine.

For a reason I can’t understand, the terminal couldn’t finish the installation of KDE as something failed. Despite all of this, all the KDE apps were installed and Plasma is appearing as an option on the login screen under Gnome and Gnome Classic. Still I couldn’t launch KDE plasma and nothing was happening after typing my login.

I took it as a sign that KDE isn’t for me, especially because I’m 99% happy with Gnome.

So I removed KDE via the terminal and the remaining apps via the software center. Sadly, there is one app called “Centre de bienvenue” or “Welcome center” from KDE that I can’t remove. Nothing is happening when I try removing it.

I tried removing it via the terminal, but when I type “dnf list installed” I can’t find it as there are too many packages. Could anyone help me?

I also tried « dnf list installed » with the words « welcome », « bienvenue », « kde » and « plasma ».

    Technically, if you would have been on Fedora Atomic, you could have just rebased to the Kinoite branch. Perhaps even created a new user so your home folder doesn’t get populated by unwanted stuff. And, afterwards, you could rebase back to whatever your original branch was.

    Furthermore, downloading any distro that defaults to KDE and offers a live environment should be able to offer you a KDE experience within the live environment as well.
