hello everybody!

i just found this on opensuse.org  -->

https://software.opensuse.org/package/kiosktool

i used "alien" to create a .deb package and installed it without problems on kubuntu 1604
see screenshots :-)

it was last revisited by hrvoje.senjan at gmail.com in 2013 and somehow ported to kde4

unfortunately the only languages i speak are scriptlanguages like php, js or python so i can't make much out of the c source code an definitely not fix anything myself but..

as far as i see there is not that much to do to make it work with plasma5 .. from a user point of view i've found 3 minor problems so far:

1.) we need to rework the files in ./data/ that contain the action restrictions and other restrictions (for example actions.kiosk or general.kiosk) to reflect the current state of the kiosk framework some of the things there seem to be outdated and others just got fixed or changed in the last 3 weeks ;-) (or added)

2.) make sure that the configuration file "/etc/kde4rc" is renamed to "/etc/kde5rc"

3.) get rid of the weird looking double headlines both in the same font-style ;-)


greetings,
thomas

ps: there was one group missing out of this.. therefore i added this email to kde-ki...@kde.org hello there kde kiosk developers. if you read this i'd love to thank you for what you've done so far and i hope you could help in updating this nice tool to make it work with the newest version of the awesome plasma-desktop and all of it's great applications :-)

OK, I think that might have got lost in the port.
containment_context_menu doesn't seem to exist anymore. However, with
run_command and logout disabled this menu will be near empty anyway.
I'll take a look.
as a separate way to just removing every containment action plugin?
