following you guys’ advice, I could verify that there was nothing new, neither in
ECM nor in kcoreaddons.

Although I had *UN*successfully tried to build tier 2 from scratch a week ago, I
tried again today and see, now it worked! :-|
So, this must have been caused by the build directory itself for some reason.
(But I haven’t tried to figure out why this had happened, due to lack of insight
into these builds…)

For now I am happy that the CI scripts should be able to build most KF5 frameworks
once again now, at least as long as I keep using my old Qt5!!
I haven’t tried to build project qt5 since [1], which is an issue into which also
Thibaut ran at Randa and which we could only fix by reverting back to an older qt5
install going back to June 10th.

Greets,
Marko
