I have successfully updated plasma and was checking for any packages to uninstall and found these Is it safe to remove them or is it better to leave them? ❯ pacman -Q | awk '{print $1}' | grep -E '^k' | grep -E '5$' karchive5 kauth5 kbookmarks5 kcodecs5 kcompletion5 kconfig5 kconfigwidgets5 kcorea…

Then I would check with pactree -r X to see if I have anything in my system depending on X. There are still packages in repos depending on 5 versions of some of kde plasma packages. You may have some of them installed.

Plasma 6 update - system cleanup?

pacman -Qdtq will produce a list of packages that are neither direct dependencies nor optional dependencies for any other packages in your system.
