Hi,
I faced with problem after updating from Squeeze to Wheezy on my laptop:
KDM fails to start because spacefun theme for KDM is absent [1].
[1] http://packages.debian.org/sid/all/desktop-base/filelist
I was surprised and checked problem on clean install in VirtualBox.
And the bug is reproducible.
Possible fix is pretty simple:
--- desktop-base.links (revision 0)
+++ desktop-base.links (working copy)
@@ -0,0 +1 @@
+usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/themes/joy usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/themes/spacefun
But of course there are other possible solutions.
Best wishes,
Boris

kdm was last released with Debian 8 (jessie) in April 2015
and was removed from the Debian archive afterwards.
It has been superseded by sddm.
See https://bugs.debian.org/803635 for details on the removal.
I'm closing the remaining bug reports now.
