ok try:
sudo apt-get --purge remove `dpkg -l | awk '{print $2}'`
Should do it, review the removed packages and as long as none are what you need you should be ok. You could ust leave them installed TBH, they will only take drive space.

Basically pull package names from the above list and uninstall them. It will pull KDE out.
