How to remove KDE Meta Packages

Sadly I installed the kde meta packages and I don't know how to remove them completely.
I removed all qt packages and now I have 410 packages and stay in tty.

Pacman doesn't find it. Could be it was already removed with qt.

Re: How to remove KDE Meta Packages

Pacman doesn't find it because 'kde' is neither a group nor a meta-package.
The group(s) you most likely installed were 'plasma' and 'kde-applications', see if removing those would purge any remainders. If pacman then again tells you it couldn't find a target, it seems you've likely already gotten rid of everything.

Re: How to remove KDE Meta Packages

I reinstalled Linux with plasma and kde-applications. I should have read the docs before I tried to install KDE.
Thank you all
