I can't believe it. You all won't believe it. Ok....so I think maybe I'm an idiot. Apparently I installed a FONT that came from KDE package base!!!!! Who knew ONE FONT would have such a "following" of dependencies!?....needless to say?...the font (which I had downloaded to help my niece do a school project) inls now gone.....I did "dnf clean all" and then "dnf update dnf"....and finally "dnf upgrade"....and there's No trace of a KDE based ANYTHING on my system?!...will stick to the Gnome fonts and not do any random ninsyapls ever again!!!
