  I tried this, which seems to work
  
    #.rst:
    # ECMQtDeclareLoggingCategory
    ...
    set_property(GLOBAL PROPERTY _ecm_qtdlc_counter "0")
    ...
    function(ecm_qt_declare_logging_category sources_var)
      ...
      if (ARG_CATEGORY_INSTALL_FILENAME)
          set(cat_file ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/${ARG_CATEGORY_INSTALL_FILENAME}.categories)
          get_property(counter GLOBAL PROPERTY _ecm_qtdlc_counter)
          if(counter STREQUAL "0")
              file(WRITE ${cat_file} "")
          endif()
    
          set(CAT_DESCRIPTION)
          if (ARG_CATEGORY_DESCRIPTION)
              set(CAT_DESCRIPTION ${ARG_CATEGORY_DESCRIPTION})
          endif()
          file(APPEND ${cat_file} "${ARG_CATEGORY_NAME} ${CAT_DESCRIPTION}\n")
          MESSAGE(STATUS "${cat_file} ${CAT_DESCRIPTION}")
          install( FILES ${cat_file} DESTINATION ${KDE_INSTALL_CONFDIR} )
          math(EXPR counter "${counter} + 1")
          set_property(GLOBAL PROPERTY _ecm_qtdlc_counter "${counter}")
      endif()
