Is a package group fully installed or not

How do I figure out - does some package group have all the packages installed or not? For example are all the packages of "kde" group installed in my system?

Use comm:

comm -23 <(pacman -Sgq kde | sort) <(pacman -Qgq kde | sort)

That lists packages, if any, not installed from the group 'kde'.
