I want to learn something real useful, because that is life. I don’t want to read idealistic romantic novel then delulu myself, thay whould be so fuck up
I’ve installed Linux on dual boot because I’ve always loved it and used it as a solo operating system or in dual boot configurations years ago. Now I’m using KDE Neon for the sole reason that it has the wobbly windows. Otherwise, any operating system is fine for me. The only thing I need to find is a good alternative to Affinity Designer 2 or a way to make it work on Linux. I know there’s Inkscape, but I’m not used to it or its user interface.
That can be problematic because if OP installed via graphical install, it will uninstall the entire desktop, as likely the way the meta packages are structured - apt will think KDE Plasma was just installed as a dependency of KDE games or something and remove it alongside.
OP if you just want to hide it, perhaps deleting the .desktop files will do the trick?
There is no apt and no meta-packages. This is Slackware, not Debian.
But it’s similar, uninstalling default software increases the effort needed for system maintenance.
And I wrote in my post that deleting the .desktop files (or renaming them to .hidden, which has the same effect) didn’t stick.
Ah didn’t realize you were actually using slackware, my bad, I thought you were just referencing the slackware approach of a full install
Also I would not assume that deleting them and renaming them has the same effect. Unless you’ve seen the source code and can confirm how it works, the pattern matching for files could be something that looks for anything in that folder, or anything containing .desktop (if you renamed them like .desktop -> .desktop.hidden)
Based on a quick Google search it’s a bug in KDE, and even uninstalling the application does not always remove it from the menu.
Thanks for the reply, but if I wanted to go with that option, I wouldn’t need to ask.
Slackware works best if you keep the default installation intact and just add to it what you need.
The content of this “important notification” is that to remind me that on January 18, 2025, they will delete the data of Google Currents, because they killed it. I even didn’t know what that product was.
