Smokegen has been extremely unreliable on the CI system since we
enabled debug mode in Qt. Most of the time it triggers asserts in
QList and promptly dies.

Given the lack of response to my requests to kde-bindings at kde.org to
have this fixed I suspect Smokegen and everything dependent on it is
defacto unmaintained.
