rpm -qa |grep kde>/tmp/kde

Check /tmp/kde to make sure other unrelated things are not included (eg
a package called backdentist)
rpm -e `cat /tmp/kde`

But why would you want to do this? While you may not use kde, you may
well want to use some of the kde programs, and are you really that short
of disk space?

And are you sure that some of the programs you do use do not depend on
kde?
