kdelibs hasn't yet been ported to Qt5, you'll need Qt4, but you don't need to compile it, just use the
distribution Qt (one that came with your ubuntu), this should already be there if you've installed kde from 
ubuntu packages. you can install built Qt5 by going to build directory and doing make uninstall.

kde-pimlibs, kde-runtime, kde-workspace are not required to build kde games, order is simply kdelibs,
libkdegames, the game itself, including the dependencies it might complain about.
