hello friends a question for what can I use the applications qt assistant, qt designer, qt linguist, qt qdbus viewer, I really do not use them but I do not know if uninstalling them damages the system, I use xfce
Welcome
Thing is, those programs are part of qt framework / build system, it’s pretty hard to remove them unless your system is qt-free which is possible, but not easy (that’s KDE Plasma speaking in me )!
You can remove qt all together, if you can realistically get rid of all programs / pacakges listed in “Required by” section of this command:
pacman -Qi qt5-base
P.S. Actually by default EndeavourOS XFCE seems to be qt-free, so you must have installed something you need that use qt which you’ll find out with that pacman command
Arch doesn’t split packages so there’s no way to remove only specific components.
There’s normally a menu editor for your DE - you can use that to hide any unwanted applications.
Welcome aboard!
Could you show the output of command:
pacman -Qs qt
Program pactree can show which packages depend on given package, e.g.
pactree -r eos-bash-shared
what will be
- MenuLibre https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/menulibre/
- alacarte from GNOME is also available with an xfce4 version: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/alacarte-xfce/
Both only in AUR there is original alacarte in the repo but it is not 100% good on XFCE4
