    Default best way to remove kde and related apps

    Hello,
    When I first installed FreeBSD I decided that I wanted to run KDE so I
    installed it and all of the stuff that comes with it (KDM for example).
    After realizing how poorly it performes I have been using fluxbox, which I
    like much better. What is the best way to remove kde and all of the
    related applications that it installs?

    Thanks

    /Brian

    Try sysutils/portmanager

    portmanager -slid will show you which ports are safe to remove
    and give you a [y/n] choice to remove them.

    pkg_deinstall -rv /var/db/pkg/kde*

    Well, it will deinstall kde and all stuff it install
    If you want uninstall all stuff kde need, just add -R
    but take care, xorg is in it :d
