How to completely disable Telepathy

Tue Nov 17, 2015 6:07 pm
Running Fedora 23 with KDE Plasma 5 I find that I have Telepathy running which I will never want or need. However I cannot find any way to stop it completely from running. How do I do this? I can see no possible use for it on my system and I always try to stop anything running that I will never need, however this does not seem obvious with Telepathy.

why not just remove the associated packages, they should all start with ktp-*

I don't have it installed but in systemsettings -> startup & shutdown -> service manager -> startup services ->, is there an option to control it?

That's the issue I can find no way via nay control panel to turn it off. I could remove packages but wonder if I might get errors on boot.

all I can say is I don't have any ktp-* packages installed and I see no errors

Well that seems to have worked - removing them.

What I dont understand is why this stuff seems to be enabled with no obvious possibility to disable them, Bluetooth and KOrganizer daemon are others as my PC has no Bluetooth so what start it and I dont use KOrganizer? I have asked in the Fedora forums but their answer seems to be that KDE does this by default. Can someone explain whether or not this is a KDE decision or a Fedora packaging decision?
