Greetings all. I just have a question. I have been using Fedora since 2002....and at NO POINT have I ever installed anything even remotely related to KDE. Fast forward to today.....(well...Tuesday in all actuality!) I get the usual notifications that "Updates Are Available"...through the Gnome notifications atop the screen midship....and I proceed to authorize them and install them. Now...I'm one of those uptight people who like to "watch" things as they get installed...and I started seeing things like: kf5-kbookmarks kf5-kded kemoticons....
and a slew of other "K" related things. Is this something to be expected from future updates?....and how do I get rid of these?....(I'm a Gnome "purist"....sue me!...LoL!) any help anyone can give would he greatly appreciated!
Thanks In Advance

Check your installed programs. Some may have kde dependencies. Programs like k3b have several. This will pull the "k" installs you saw.

amarok quassel konsole anything that has a kde dependency that you installed would have installed also the kde dependencies with it

If he was fully updated, up to the point of the time/date he ran the update, and he didn't have any (or at least not that he noticed) KDE programs before, then why now all of a sudden? Did they get installed prior due to dependencies and he didn't realize it? Or did something in the latest update change and called the programs in?
THAT'S the question. I ALWAYS "watch" my updates....(a throwback from a different time in my life when I used to "scan" every downloadable/executable for the sneaky little checkboxes that wanted to install all manner of toolbars!) and to my knowledge?...I have never installed anything that had KDE dependencies!...(As I said...I'm a Gnome purist...I prefer to get most of my apps from the Software Center...and while there might be KDE-centric apps there? I don't use 'em...I'm just not a fan of how KDE renders or the look of their fonts!) So there should be nothing that runs anything KDE on my system...I have the usual suspects: Gnome Tweak LibreOffice VLC Media Player RhythmBox The usual SELinux / Tools etc. Firefox (and Vivaldi) Gedit The Fedora USB Writing/Burning program. And CodeBlocks (because I'm trying to learn C++....don't know why?....maybe I'm a glutton for punishment?...LoL!) And also Ninja-IDE (Yep. I'm a glutton as I'm ALSO trying to learn Python as well!)
Other than that? I don't have anything KDE-related. I guess I will first check some logs and make sure nothing installed without my knowledge or without my permission, (which shouldn't happen with Fedora Linux!) and then deep dive into everything I have. I'm sure I'll be able to find whatever it is..and REMOVE it. Thanks for all the advice and suggestions...I'll keep you all posted!
Cheers!

I can't believe it. You all won't believe it. Ok....so I think maybe I'm an idiot. Apparently I installed a FONT that came from KDE package base!!!!! Who knew ONE FONT would have such a "following" of dependencies!?....needless to say?...the font (which I had downloaded to help my niece do a school project) inls now gone.....I did "dnf clean all" and then "dnf update dnf"....and finally "dnf upgrade"....and there's No trace of a KDE based ANYTHING on my system?!...will stick to the Gnome fonts and not do any random ninsyapls ever again!!!

Would you mind to tell us the font package you installed?

Well, why don't you just do
dnf erase kf5-kbookmarks and see if it attempts to remove something you're using?

you could simply do a rpm -qa | grep kf5 to see really how much is also there
