I have some more findings and will try to briefly explain these in the 
hope that they are useful.

I just gave it a try with a fresh image based on the devel branch.
With the stock image the ui does not come up.
Then I manually copied /usr/bin/contour and 
/usr/share/autostart/contour.desktop from the plasma-mobile rpm of the 
testing branch.
With the copied files in place the ui comes up as it should.
ps also shows a running contour process.


With respect to the changes in plasma-mobile that lead to contour not 
being built:
There is a new automatism that dynamically determines at build-time 
whether contourd should be build or not.
There seem to be some errors related to this, at least on arm.
Attached, I send you a diff with from my attempt to let it build again.
Please note that those changes are very hackish and are only intended as 
experiments. I am not even sure if QtNetworkManager vs. NetworkManagerQt 
is really a mistake. But I hope that it is suited to give an impression 
of what may go wrong.
Also note that even though the build progressed more with these changes 
it still failed.


I hope you consider this as useful.
