back/forward button in kubuntu slideshow broken

[Rik Mills]

Kubuntu 17.10 Alpha 2 iso image
Build 20170725

What happens:

The kubuntu slideshow shows back/forward buttons in the slideshow pane. Clicking these buttons at any point during the install does nothing, apart from a causing the button highlight itself on click.

What should happen:

A reasonable user would expect displayed button to be functional. In this case that they can navigate the slideshow by advancing or going back through the slides using the provide back and forward buttons.
