When I run KDE only systems it is "apper" that pops up on the systray

Slightly OT: what's the recommended way of stopping that? I'd rather use
yum and not have Apper pestering me. Besides which it occasionally holds
grabs a lock while I'm trying to use yum (I presume that's PackageKit's
fault)
just cleanup your system?
why is package-kit installed if you don't user it
why is apper installed if you don't use it?
why is anything installed you don't use?
Well, in my case I imagine PackageKit et al arrived at some time via
something like 'yum install KDE-desktop' and just got left there. I
haven't done a clean install on this box since perhaps F12.
And FWIW I usually use Firefox for browsing and Konqueror for file
management :-)
