Either kdeworkspace needs a FindKActivies.cmake, or libaktivities should just 
be considered part of kdelibs (which includes a lot of libraries, and so could 
include also libkactivities) (and this is what I would recommend for some 
generic library being part of kdelibs), or libkdeactivities should install a 
KActivitiesConfig.cmake, which will be found automatically by 
find_package(KActivities).
