OSX/MacPorts KDE CI System: Asking for trouble due to installations outside the expected $DATA_INSTALL_DIR/kf5 directory for khtml and katepart5

Hi David,

that's what I figured, but ...


> Just like all KDE apps will install their rc files in DATA/appname.

I then spotted the 13 framework applications shown below [1] getting installed into
the kf5 subfolder.

Hmmm, I see.

That's true, I guess.

This issue is perhaps a non-issue, since up to now I am building on the OSX/KDE CI
system only the KF5 frameworks and no KF5 applications at all.

Greets,
Marko
