           Summary: No menu present in Kcontrol window

            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal

Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

When selecting "Kcontrol" from the menu of opening via console, I get the main window which tells me who I am, what type OS system and version of Kcontrol I'm using, but the left panel is absent. I've searched many sites for an answer, and nobody's solution seems to help...as if I'm a special case. I'm using Debian Etch, and upgrade from Debian Sarge, Before the upgrade everything was working fine. I cannot customize my KDE settings easily until this issue is resolved, it's pretty annoying. 

Someone said it was a symlink issue, but when I looked further into it, I created an empty file and symlinked to it. The file just doesn't exist or seem to be in the .deb package. The symlink resolution helped lots of people... but it does not help those who do not have the file in their system. I hope this is resolved quickly.
