Although many Fedora KDE users install their machines via the KDE live installer, there are many other people who do installs differently. I tend to download the Fedora Server edition, install a minimal install, and then build my desktop up from there.
But as I was generating some Fedora statistics, I wondered if my own machines were being counted. Turns out they weren't. Well, they were being counted, but as Fedora Servers.
Figuring I'm not the only person doing what I do, I decided to write this quick writeup.
Check how your machine is being counted:
rpm -qa | grep fedora-release-identity
This shows how your machine is showing up on Fedora's CountMe. If you are running KDE and want to be counted, it should be
fedora-release-identity-kde
If it isn't, proceed to the next step.
If you want to be counted as running Fedora KDE, do the following
dnf -y install fedora-release-kde fedora-release-identity-kde --allowerasing
The --allowerasing is important. A Fedora system is only allowed one fedora-release-identity package installed at a time, and it needs to erase the one that is originally installed.
Hopes this helps
