Help. The latest backports upgrade uninstalled half of KDE.

[vayulove]

With 12.04 and backports of the latest KDE, I've been enjoying the most rock solid slickest computing environment I've ever had.

Yesterday I did the update to 4.10.2 from 4.10.1. All seemingly went well. At some point I go to use kdesudo, "not found". Go to install it, Muon not found. Turns out all kinds of things are not installed that used to be. Ktorrent, the whole Caligra suite. I can't figure out a pattern. Looked through Muon I couldn't find a meta package that would include those things. Stupidly I installed some thing like kde-full and watched all kinds of things I don't want get installed. This morning my panel is from a different theme.

I was really planning on trying to keep this system with 12,04 for a long time. What might have happened? Did anyone else notice something with the backports to 4.10.2?

Is there any way to fix this, find out a list of what's missing? Do I just keep installing as I notice it? Muon wouldn't work until I went into the menu and added run as a different user, now it works, but it uses the theme from the root user, it didn't do that before. Do I have an underground problem now?

I think:

sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

will restore the missing packages.

Thanks, that was one of the packages missing. It installed many of them back. I found a history in Muon. I could set it to yesterday and then it lets you narrow that down to installs/removals/updates.. So looking at removals I can see the long list of packages that were uninstalled. Muon is a nice program. KDE should consider making it part of SC.
