Re: To make sure it works.....

Okay, then if programs aren't dependant on the file manager why is it that
when I tried to apt-get install a program it updated KDE?

Here is what happened, I did anuprade and broke everything. I then reinstalled
and tried installing needed individual programs but whenever I did that apt
updated a bunch of other stuff (dependencies) which broke the system again.
