alkimia >= 5.0.0 fetches Qt5 dependencies into a project using it. You
need to revert alkimia to version <= 4.3.2. Another option would be to
(re)add Qt4 support to recent alkimia.

I realized that converting libalkimit >= 5.0.0 to use QT4 is probably not as good a solution as I was thinking, as it would be a conversion, not an addition, so that version would still not be good for the frameworks version of KMM.

So, I figured I would installing 4.3.2 somewhere out of my main tree, and point cmake for 4.8 git heat to that version. However, nothing I have tried has worked - it keeps finding the version of libalkimia from it's git head (under/usr) instead. Oddly, it looks like CMakeLists.txt has a test and should fail for libalkimia >= 6.0.0 but it claims it finds 6.0.9 but is not failing. Is this a cmake bug, or am I not understanding something?

I have tried setting CMAKE_PREFIX_DIR (and several variations) both as an environment variable and with -D, and I have tried setting LibAlkimia_DIR, but cmake is either ignoring them, or not finding what it wants. Is perhaps part of the problem that prior to 5.0.0, libalkimia only produce a FindLibAlkimia.cmake and not and ....Config.cmake?

For now, I will uninstall the more recent libalkimia from my main tree and install the older version, but I'd prefer to have all the frameworks related stuff in my main tree, and any remnant KDE4 stuff that cannot coexist installed elsewhere. On that note, I don't know if it is inherent to the alkimia install or to the gentoo ebuild that the qt4/kde4 qt5/frameworks versions cannot be installed at the same time, since several of the files have identical names in both.

Am I just trying the impossible?
