Indeed. I have never installed the KDE Spin. I install the
Workstation
"product" (hate that name) and add the KDE Group. I use Evolution for mail
(except today :-) so I need some of the Gnome stuff anyway. I still regard
myself as a KDE user.
On all my own machines, I install whatever Anaconda presents as the most
minimal of bootable and networkable options, then add bits until I have
working minimal KDE, then add whatever apps I actually need. It's infrequent
that I install fresh, as I find live upgrading with yum/dnf less painful than
installation. When practical, I clone another installation rather than
installing.
