Greetings to all.
Last night I tried to install KDE on my system. I had not had any
version of KDE installed before.
I simply used "pacman -S kde" to install the complete KDE from the
REPO. Of course, "kde" was a package group:
[rookie@DROWNWESTLAKE ~]$ pacman -Qg kde
kde kdeaccessibility
kde kdeadmin
kde kdeartwork
kde kdebase
kde kdebase-runtime
kde kdebase-workspace
kde kdeedu
kde kdegames
kde kdegraphics
kde kdelibs
kde kdemultimedia
kde kdenetwork
kde kdepim
kde kdepimlibs
kde kdeplasma-addons
kde kdesdk
kde kdetoys
kde kdeutils
kde kdewebdev
After the installation, I edited /etc/rc.conf and added the kdm to the
daemons. Then I was desperated to find that KDM couldn't be launched
correctly(but "startkde" worked well). A message box was displayed on
the screen, saying "can't open file:
/usr/share/apps/kdm/themes/archlinux-soft-grey". Then I searched the
packages and installed the package 'archlinux-themes-kdm' and
everything went well.
It seems that the default kdm theme is set to 'archlinux-soft-grey'
but the proper package can't be retrieved and installed automatically,
i.e. a bug on the dependences of kde.
