I at least fixed already all frameworks required by the current Kate build (beside that KIO slave don't work atm and I guess
I missed 1-2 files still not in resources):

kconfig
kguiaddons
ki18n
kitemviews
sonnet
kwindowsystem
kwidgetsaddons
kcompletion
kdbusaddons
karchive
kcoreaddons
kjobwidgets
kcrash
kservice
kcodecs
kauth
kconfigwidgets
kiconthemes
ktextwidgets
kglobalaccel
kxmlgui
kbookmarks
solid
kio
kparts
ktexteditor

That means they now by "default" just work, if you use the master branch.
More frameworks to go, for sure, but that is really doable ;=)

Greetings
Christoph
