There were two issues:

   
CraftRoot/etc/blueprints/locations/craft-blueprints-kde/libs/libfftw/libfftw.py
needs to be updated to check for the ARM arch and unset -DENABLE_SSE2=ON

    Craft by default produces partly-codesigned binaries which are then
modified during craft --package, creating a broken app bundle. There is
CodeSigning section in etc/CraftSettings.ini but it expects an official MacOS
developer identity (which makes sense for KDE org). It would probably work with
the official signing identity but I don't have a Mac developer program
purchased (and I don't plan to get one as I expect to be able to build and run
software on my computer without paying Apple yearly for some certificates). So
I patched ./craft/bin/Utils/CodeSign.py to pass - (dash) as --sign identity
argument (requesting adhoc signing). Then, after craft --package ... I
extracted the built .app bundle and replaced entitlements [1] for all binaries
find /Applications/kdeconnect-indicator.app/Contents/MacOS -type f -perm +111
-exec codesign -fs - --options runtime --entitlements ~/tmp/entitlements.plist
{} \; and resigned the whole bundle adhoc again codesign -fs -
kdeconnect-indicator.app. Then replaced the app bundle in the dmg.

You can follow my steps or you can try my dmg. It has adhoc-signed binaries so
it may not work for you or it may require to explicitly allow opening the app
in Settings -> Pricacy & Security.

I will try to upstream the changes (libfftw blueprint will be easy, adding
optional adhoc option for signing may be more difficult).

[1] Entitlements I used just disable signature validation on libraries loaded
into the process and allow attaching a debugger to a running process:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN"
"http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
        <key>com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation</key>
        <true/>
        <key>com.apple.security.get-task-allow</key>
        <true/>
</dict>
</plist>
