Bug#831730: desktop-base: Integration with KDE's plasma-desktop seems to no longer work with current version

[Raphaël Hertzog <hertzog@debian.org>]

Package: desktop-base
Version: 8.0.2
Severity: important
User: devel@kali.org
Usertags: origin-kali

When you install KDE on a fresh system, the default wallpaper that you get
is not the one provided by desktop-base. So it looks like that the
integration provided by
/usr/share/kde4/apps/plasma-desktop/init/10-desktop-base.js is no longer 
working as expected and might need an update to work with the version of
KDE currently in testing/unstable.

$ cat kde-wallpaper/10-desktop-base.js 
// Placed in /usr/share/kde4/apps/plasma-desktop/init/
// This script is run for new users, which do not have a .kde directory
// and it set's the default wallpaper for all activities

a = activities()

for (i in a) {
    a[i].wallpaperPlugin = 'image'
    a[i].wallpaperMode = 'SingleImage'
    a[i].currentConfigGroup = Array('Wallpaper', 'image')
    a[i].writeConfig('wallpaper',
            '/usr/share/images/desktop-base/desktop-background')
    a[i].writeConfig('wallpaperposition', '2')          //enables croping
}

(This has been identified on a Kali Linux system but I have all the
reasons to believe that it also applies to a Debian testing system)
