Description: Ekklesia managed classroom environment
 A classroom appliance built on Debian's own Plasma desktop. The room's
 panel, window behaviour, notifications, palette and lockdown are
 configuration for that desktop rather than a shell of our own; what is
 left here is the church's own subject matter — Wonder Ink, the browser,
 the DVD player, the printer, the audio policy and the updater.
 .
 konsole is here for one chord. It is the local recovery route for a
 technical administrator standing at a machine when SSH is not
 available; it is hidden from every application list and reachable only
 by Meta+Ctrl+Alt+Shift+K.
 .
 plasma-widgets-addons is here for one widget: Quick Launch, which is
 the only stock way to put a single launcher on the panel that reads
 /usr/share/applications live. The Icon widget copies the entry into the
 user's home, so an update could never change it.
 .
 python3-gi and gtk-layer-shell are still here because the DVD player
 draws its own loading cover and control bar as layer-shell surfaces.
 They are no longer here for a dock.
 .
 python3-pyqt6.qtwebengine is Wonder Ink. Teachers prepare a lesson across
 several tabs and Chrome cannot be asked for tabs without an address bar,
 so the tab strip is the classroom's and the engine is Debian's Chromium.
 Measured on Debian 13 before it was chosen: H.264 and AAC both decode,
 which is the usual and correct objection to QtWebEngine and is not true
 of this build. Chrome stays exactly where it was, for the ordinary
 browser.
 .
 libreoffice-impress and poppler-utils are Presentations, and neither is
 ever shown to a teacher. LibreOffice runs once per import, headless,
 with no window on any screen, to turn a PPT or PPTX into a PDF; poppler
 turns that PDF into one picture per slide; the classroom's own library
 shows the pictures. Measured before it was chosen: `soffice --show`
 does start a real slideshow and then leaves the Impress editor on
 screen when it ends, and `okular --presentation` opens its own document
 window and an information dialog behind the slides. Neither is
 something a teacher may be left looking at, and converting once at
 import costs 0.34s for a ten-slide deck and nothing at all afterwards.
 libreoffice-gtk3 is deliberately NOT here: nothing interactive runs.
 .
 The fonts are what a Google Slides export asks for. The metric
 compatible families cover the Microsoft names — Liberation for Arial,
 Times New Roman and Courier New, Carlito for Calibri, Caladea for
 Cambria, Croscore for the same three under their Chrome OS names — and
 Roboto, Open Sans, Lato and Montserrat are the web fonts Google Slides
 itself offers. Every one is in Debian main and installs without a
 question. ttf-mscorefonts-installer is deliberately absent: it is in
 contrib, it downloads from a third party at install time and it shows
 an EULA prompt, and an unattended classroom upgrade cannot answer one.
 .
 The Conflicts line is deliberate. A welcome tour, a software centre and
 a phone pairing daemon are all things plasma-desktop recommends and a
 room a teacher walks into should not have.
 .
 khelpcenter is there for the same reason, found the hard way: a
 settings window's Help button opens it directly, whatever the Kiosk
 restrictions say, and it is a browser of the machine's manual pages with
 file dialogs of its own. plasma-desktop only recommends it, and nothing
 else installed needs it.
