Fwd: Issues for Qt5/KF5/KDE/CI system on OSX/MacPorts

Hi Luigi,

yep, I know this one and tried get it to work in a similar fashion, but
to no avail. :(

This is new to me, but I figure the SHARE_INSTALL_PREFIX is specific to a 
Windows install, right?

I saw only now that Harald has some new solution atm [1] which includes custom
settings for:
	- DocBookXML_CURRENTDTD_DIR
	- DocBookXSL_DIR

as well as a patch for

	KF5DocToolsConfig.cmake.in

but I haven’t tried anything of it yet, because I’ve got no clue as to how
much of it is specific for a Homebrew setup (especially the DocBookX* vars).

But the setting of KDOCTOOLS_CUSTOMIZATION_DIR looks promising:
---
diff --git a/KF5DocToolsConfig.cmake.in b/KF5DocToolsConfig.cmake.in
...
-set(KDOCTOOLS_DATA_INSTALL_DIR "${PACKAGE_PREFIX_DIR}/@DATA_INSTALL_DIR@")
+if (APPLE)
+    set(KDOCTOOLS_DATA_INSTALL_DIR "@DATA_INSTALL_DIR@")
+else()
+    set(KDOCTOOLS_DATA_INSTALL_DIR "${PACKAGE_PREFIX_DIR}/@DATA_INSTALL_DIR@")
+endif()
 set(KDOCTOOLS_CUSTOMIZATION_DIR "${KDOCTOOLS_DATA_INSTALL_DIR}/kdoctools5/customization”)
---

Will deal with that next week. :)

Greets,
Marko
