I just managed to read kde-related mail now...

I see, thanks, I didn't notice thee ordering for the pixmap cards was 
different than the one we use in our svg decks.

What about putting it somewhere in SVN? I see there already is 
a "convertpysols" script there, we could add this one for reference as well.

Well, I'm not terrified by perl, but I'm a bit rusty... I'm not using it so 
much these days. But adding the "right" back to the deck seems a boring 
task... if I understand it correctly, the deck contains a default back name, 
but that is not the name of the image, or the .desktop file associated with 
the back. It's some name defined in one of those .desktop files. So to find 
out the proper back, we have to scan the backs directory to fill out a hash 
map with the name-pixmap association.

Or we could just add another parameter to the script and rely on a volunteer 
to find out the right back...
