Public bug reported:

When installing ubuntu without X and after that installing wanted
packages plus kdm (having the dependencies gdb, kdebase-bin and kdebase-
data installed) you get a popup error about
/usr/share/apps/kdm/themes/kubuntu not existing. You have to click this
popup before you can login via kdm. Everything works fine otherwise.

The directory mentioned above is not created either by installing kde-kdm-themes. The easiest solution seems to be to edit /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc and change the line beginning with Theme to what should be the default according to the comment before that line:
Theme=

This will do the same effect as 
UseTheme=false
but without the error popup.

Please either install the kubuntu theme with kdm as default or then have
Theme defaulting to nothing if installing kdm alone.
