I have a fresh installation of Debian Squeeze with LXDE and TDE 3.5.12. I seem to have a fair bit of KDE4 junk clogging up my system. I can't remember how I got rid of it in the past. Can I just use find or locate with grep rm?
This is someone else's computer, so there is a limit to how much I want to mess around! Though I could obviously reinstall.

don't do this :) - better generate a list of installed kde4 stuff with dpkg, like so: dpkg -l | grep kde | grep ii | grep 4:4 | awk '{print $2}' then use this list to remove the mentioned packages via apt-get or aptitude.

Thanks, Werner. :-)
Done, hopefully successfully.
