Two comments, 1 I should have remembered that one.YW and why should you? How often do you actually add new users?2 Even then I would expect it to be installed automatically. Not so, I had to install it myself. How crazy is that?IDK how Mint handles installation of stuff, but with Debian it's possible to install a minimal (say) KDE which misses out a lot of stuff. As KUser is one of the more "harmful" pieces of admin software, it's possibly prudent not to install by default. Obviously, opinions will differ.
