I can do the changes if needed. It just needs the changes here:
http://community.kde.org/Frameworks/Porting_Notes under "Build System"
?
I believe attica currently builds with both qt4 or qt5 based on cmake
options (if QT4_BUILD is set it builds with qt4). Is the qt4 branch
supposed to not use ECM then?

BR,
Jeremy
