Dear all,
I have a slackware 13.0 64 installed in my machine and I try to uninstall a program that is a part of a package. For instance I want to uninstall Kolourpaint, which is part of kdegraphics, without uninstalling the others. How can I do this? Is there any easy way that I can do this from KDE level without delving into linux level?

regards,
ethereal1m

If your distribution provides binary packages, and does not split the main KDE modules, then this is likely not possible.

@ethereal1m Slackware leaves the KDE bundles in tack as they are provided from upstream. So Kolourpaint is contained in the kde-graphics package.
Obvisously `removepkg kde-graphics` would go to far, but you could review /var/log/pacakages/kde-graphics-* for lines regarding kolourpaint, and either rm them or `chmod -x ` the executable ones, like /usr/bin/kolourpaint

Take care,
