Why when I install Okular also installs Kdeconnect?

#1 Post by niilav »

To install Okular I run in console:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install okular
and it installs Okular and Kdeconnect too. Then I delete Kdeconnect as it is for connecting the mobile and has nothing to do with Okular which I use to annotate pdfs.
How can I do to only install Okular?

I say more, it also installs kwallet and plenty of other stuff. Okular apparently pulls half of KDE with itself, regardless of distro.
Try using

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get --no-install-recommends install okular
it should pull a little less with itself.

Can you post the full terminal output to your command, as well as the input and also the version of Debian that you have installed.?

Edit : Cool, simultaneous posting for the win :)
