Oh heck! Well that's a pain. And, well, stupid, imo.
I now have a problem finding things, because I have kde and gnome
installed, and there are myriad entries in settings and system and
utilities which it is a matter of trial and error to ascertain what they
do.
kcontrol appears to still be in Debian, so this is presumably a Kubuntu
thing. Perhaps it'll appear in backports.
