KCM fonts

[Max Harmathy]

Thanks for the replay. And sorry for the confusion.

The main issue, I have, is not to build the module but to get kcmshell5
to run my module. kcmshell5 takes a desktop file as argument, not the
module itself. So I guess I have to set some environment variables to
make kcmshell5 run my module.
