I think installing kdelibs4 to get kbuildsyscoca4 defeats the purpose of going to frameworks. IS there a better solution here? I am willing to fix the apps to have docs compatible to kf5 if someone points me in a direction.

nevermind installing the docs package did not help. I noticed the only docs found by khelpcenter is in /usr/share/doc/HTML/en but kde4 apps install docs into /usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en this very well could be a Kubuntu thing.
