THAT'S the question. I ALWAYS "watch" my updates....(a throwback from a different time in my life when I used to "scan" every downloadable/executable for the sneaky little checkboxes that wanted to install all manner of toolbars!) and to my knowledge?...I have never installed anything that had KDE dependencies!...(As I said...I'm a Gnome purist...I prefer to get most of my apps from the Software Center...and while there might be KDE-centric apps there? I don't use 'em...I'm just not a fan of how KDE renders or the look of their fonts!) So there should be nothing that runs anything KDE on my system...I have the usual suspects:
Gnome Tweak
LibreOffice
VLC Media Player
RhythmBox
The usual SELinux / Tools etc.
Firefox (and Vivaldi)
Gedit
The Fedora USB Writing/Burning program.
And CodeBlocks (because I'm trying to learn C++....don't know why?....maybe I'm a glutton for punishment?...LoL!)
And also Ninja-IDE (Yep. I'm a glutton as I'm ALSO trying to learn Python as well!)
Other than that? I don't have anything KDE-related. I guess I will first check some logs and make sure nothing installed without my knowledge or without my permission, (which shouldn't happen with Fedora Linux!) and then deep dive into everything I have. I'm sure I'll be able to find whatever it is..and REMOVE it. Thanks for all the advice and suggestions...I'll keep you all posted!
Cheers!

If he was fully updated, up to the point of the time/date he ran the
update, and he didn't have any (or at least not that he noticed) KDE
programs before, then why now all of a sudden? Did they get installed
prior due to dependencies and he didn't realize it? Or did something
in the latest update change and called the programs in?
