Chum GUI cannot remove Opt Kf5 packages

Applications
#1

Hi,
in order to install the latest SFOS Version, i would like to remove all the Opt Kf5 … packages that i previously installed via chum (SFOS Version update tells me to remove all those packages). However i cannot remove the packages via the chum gui du to circular dependencies - at least it looks like that: e.g.
when i try to remove
Opt Kf5 Kio Widget it tells to that is depends on Opt Kf5 Kio Widgets Libs
When i try to remove
Opt Kf5 Kio Widgets Libs it tells me that it depends on Opt Kf5 Kio Widget
which makes this ciruclar to me.

Is there a proper way to remove th Opt Kf5 package via the GUI? I which order can i remove
the packages? Is there a way to see the dependencies in the GUI / CLI?

How can i remove all the package via the CLI?

Thanks in advance.

Use zypper remove on one of the packages, and it will ask if you want to remove the dependences.
You might have to install zypper first.
pkcon install zypper

I have installed zypper using pkcon, but it doesn’t start. Has anybody seen this?
