Description: When doing a fresh install of kde using kde-meta-kdebase, several of the installed by default KDM themes do not include the background wallpapers. When selecting the Ariya, Elarun, & Horos KDM themes, while the preview thumbnails are correct, you only get a black background at the login screen. Oxygen, Oxygen-Air, & Circles all include the wallpapers. The kde-wallpapers package is required to get the backgrounds for the other themes.
If these themes are going to be included with kdebase, the background images should be included as well.
(This actually raises another question....why isn't kde-wallpapers part of kde-meta-kdeartwork? Or why is it separate from kdeartwork-wallpapers?)


Additional info:
* package version(s): 4.11 and at least a couple of versions earlier.
* This is an issue for x86_64, not sure about 32 bit, tho it likely exists there as well


Steps to reproduce:
Install kde-meta-kdebase, login/start kde, select Horos KDM theme, logout-->see black background behind the login screen.
This task depends upon

kde-wallpapers isn't part of the kdeartwork module.
