Now, as the &root; user: make install -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBEXECDIR=libexec: This overrides the default in extra-cmake-modules, which is /usr/lib/libexec and is not FHS compliant. -DKDE_INSTALL_USE_QT_SYS_PATHS=ON: This forces installation of Qt plugins in the same directory as itself. Otherwise they get installed into /usr/mkspecs, which is not FHS compliant.
