Ok.  I let you remember that Slim should not depends on KDM and that
KDM should not depends on Slim.  So how to do that?
The only way to do such thing is to add an attribute which contains
the name of the display manager which have to be activated and in each
display manager we should replace the "mkIf cfg.enable" by "mkIf
dmcfg.name = "kdm" ".
