AFAIK Plasma does not need KMail or even Kontact to work 100%. Where are you getting that from?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

@Bro666 My second to last install of Fedora which broke when I uninstalled some Kmail adjacent package. (Kcontacts among others.)

But you’re right, uninstalling Kmail itself doesn’t break Plasma.

Note that uninstalling (or choosing to not install) any part of KDE PIM (KMail, Kontact, Korganiser, Akonadi, etc.) should not affect Plasma or any other of its components*. if it does, you should notify your distro, because that is a bug in the packaging.

* For example, the calendar that pops up when you click the digital clock in the panel, should not be broken. It just won't show events or tasks from KDE PIM... Because PIM isn't there. Otherwise it should be fine.
