Well, imagine that at this early stage I had to push with -force
already once for these repos... not something expected in calligra/
It's just not ready for use, porting these libs within calligra/ does
not seem justified to me: we'd fix paths for example to reflect
conventions of Qt 5 but paths and namespaces will change after
extraction to separate libs => extra work.

BTW, these two are only used by Kexi and no refactoring happen, just
semi-automatic work. And after all these are easier libs so give us
get some real experience.
