Thanks for the explanation. I'll keep that in mind.

I've tried to follow the licenses as submitted by the individual packages. I'm 
currently in process
of double checking.


I found out that the kinfocenter and systemsettings were not behaving correctly 
- no widgets were
rendered due to missing QML modules. The attached patch solves this.

I have some additional patches for kwin and plasma-workspace but they are not 
yet enough to launch
KDE desktop.

Also one "small" problem. As I switched to sway to test apps running under 
Wayland I noticed a pretty
important issue. None of the programs launched were running under Wayland - 
they ran in XWayland.

Is this known issue?

Do we need to modify the qt-build-system or cmake-build-system? Or shall we add 
wrap phase for each
package to add the correct path for qtwayland package in env variable 
QT_QPA_PLATFORM_PLUGIN_PATH?

```
$ echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE
wayland
$ konsole
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "wayland" in ""
```
