I'm happy that Canonical asks Kubuntu users to join this initiative. You 
should do things like this more often. 

In this case, we'll need a bit more instructions.
- From the site: "It is in Ubuntu by default. Just search by Ubuntu Friendly 
or System Testing in the Dash".
  In Kubuntu, it's not installed by default. Let's use the command line to 
find it:
  ~$ aptitude search friendly
  i   friendly-recovery            - Make recovery more user-friendly
That's probably not the right package.

So, my humble suggestion would be: put the name of the needed package on that 
site.
