I installed KDE with "pacman -S kde" it installed all sorts of stuff and i didn't like it.
The only things i needed were kde-base plasma and dolphin. Now i've disintalled kde ( with "pacman -R kde ) and kept it minimal with the few things i need.
Seems perfect but when i open a terminal and digit "k" and press tab, i can still see all kapplications that came with the whole kde package. Why? Shouldn't they be deleted? How can i remove them completley?

Those are just base kde executables.
-edit-
Your posts aren't very clear. You want to get rid of everything kde-related or just keep plasma/dolphin?
Run "pacman -Q | grep kde" to see what kde packages are installed. Run "pacman -Qo `which ksomething`" to see what package the executable belongs to.

i managed to eliminate the kde packages and i had a few left. Seeing the "K" in front ( i'm completley new to kde so i don't know how it's organized )
kadmin kdigest kill kpasswd kswitch
kadmind kEsetroot killall kpasswdd ktelnet
kauth keytool killall5 krb5-config ktelnetd
kbd_mode kf kimpersonate krcp ktutil
kbdrate kfd kinit krsh
kcm kftp klist krshd
kdc kftpd klogin kstash
kdestroy kgetcred koi8rxterm ksu
i thought that the remaining packages were left over from the previous installation ok KDE.
I'm wrong aren't I?
EDIT: apart from "kill" obviously

yes @z3r0. you are wrong.
pacman -Qo `which ksu` for example.
Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

As I understand, you removed kde with "pacman -R kde" and then used "pacman -Rns kde".
Have any packages been removed with the "pacman -R kde" ??
I would install again kde
pacman -S kde
and then
pacman -Rnsc kde kdebase
suposely this last command will remove every package which depends on kde/kdebase
you should check it. it could work.
