just wanted to pass on my opinion about the move to take the wallpapers out of the /opt/kde3/share tree and put them into /usr/share.
This started already with 10.0.
While overall not a bad idea to consolidate the wallpapers, it breaks the user's background config without warning. What's wrong with a simple symbolic link to fix that?
Similarly, I had the SuSE93 kdm theme configured, which has disappeared.
There should be an extra package with those old backgrounds. Coolo, how is that one called?
What's wrong with a package to wrap the backwards compatible bootsplash, kdm themes and defunct wallpapers, and make it such that the user need not break his thumb to get them configured as they were.
Exactly that was planned for wallpapers - for bootsplash and kdm themes it is more involved.
I understand the idea of 'branding' etc., but personally it annoys me quite a bit.
