21 You could also read what the ebuild already tells you:
22
23 (from kdebase-startkde)
24
25 pkg_postinst () {
26 echo
27 einfo "To enable gpg-agent and/or ssh-agent in KDE sessions,"
28 einfo "edit ${KDEDIR}/env/agent-startup.sh and"
29 einfo "${KDEDIR}/shutdown/agent-shutdown.sh"
30 echo
31 }
32
33
34 kdm themes are not officially supported, but you can get info about them on
35 kde-look.org
