I have installed tigervnc server and xfce

 sudo apt install xfce4 xfce4-goodies

and was working for some time. Then I decided to try KDE and did

sudo apt install kubuntu-desktop
sudo apt remove xfce4

But nevertheless I have xfce4 on vnc screen. How to remove it and switch to KDE?

apt show xfce4 indicates that xfce4 is a metapackage. By running sudo apt remove xfce4 you don't achieve removal of the packages specified by xfce4.

If you want to remove all the packages specified by the xfce4 metapackage, go through the appropriate history.log file, or the archived version, in /var/log/apt/ and remove the relevant packages.
