Keep on meeting up with this problem of a module not being able to be deactivated, because of being required somewhere else, a case in poiint being kdelibs, where Kate needed a library which could only be found in kdelibs. Sometimes when testing for module dependency, the module, I presume, provides something which a library in nepomuk or soprano or kdelibs needs. However this library is irrelevant for installed programs on system. Disengagement of module should have no repercussions.
Another problem is where two modules are dependent on each other, but cannot deactivate both, because of interdependency. Any way possible to deactivate both simultaneously?
Is there a way to forcibly deactivate?

Kdelibs is a bad example, as it is the heart of the KDE operating system; but soprano, nepomuk, pimlibs, redland, kwallet, etc, can be taken out by recompiling from source only. At least I have done it that way; you will have to edit Cmake.lists before compiling. You will have to recompile all main packages of kde: kdelibs, kdebase, kdeworkspace, kderuntime, and.., and...
I call this method "á la fanthom".

Porteus is proud of the FASTEST KDE ever made.....(take akonadi, nepomuk and soprano out and you will have a decent OS).
