I had done a minimal Leap install and added KSnapshot. I wanted kcmshell to run both fonts and xserver modules, but kcmshell couldn't find those modules. So I booted a 13.2 KDE4 installation and found via lsof and rpm -qf that apparently kdebase4-workspace-addons would be required, by seeing among open files /usr/lib64/kde4/kcm_fonts.so. I installed that package, but it only made xserver work. Module fonts is still missing. How can I find out what else is required?
You did not give your actual commands, how they reacted and what you expected them to react. So it is time for guessing what you have really done and what you want.
A Leap 42.1 installation has no kcmshell command. It has kcmshell4 and kcmshell5. Both have a module named "fonts". They are in the packages kdebase4-workspace-addons and plasma5-desktop, respectively.
From Terminology window, both
$ kcmshell4 fonts & and $ kcmshell4 xserver & failed when I first tried. Then I installed kdebase4-workspace-addons (which pulled also kdebase4-workspace-libs and more). Subsequently $ kcmshell4 xserver & succeeded, but $ kcmshell4 fonts & produced "Could not find module 'fonts'. See kcmshell4 --list for the full list of modules." After at least half an hour trying to figure out what was missing and writing my OP, I tried again. and $ kcmshell4 fonts & worked as expected. :-p -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
