>The dependencies I put were naïvely based on checking what other package managers use/getting through the configure phase successfully (rather than knowing what's in ki18n), which is where I saw QtScript but no mention of QtDeclarative.
If you look at the CMake output:
```
* Qt5Qml
```
That's provided by QtDeclarative.
BTW, this is part of the reason why I implemented `cmake.save_configure_cmd` with the `"log too"` option: this saves the cmake invocation and output in separate files in the port's work directory in addition to the *volatile* output embedded in the logfile.

It would definitely make sense to put me on it, being the maintainer of the (only) existing KF5 ports tree.
Does yan12125 have commit access, and/or does he intend to step up as a regular co-maintainer? If so he is more than welcome (you too), but with the caveat emptor that I've invested too much time in (and rely too much on) my KF5 ports to give out/up the reins ;)
But isn't all this a bit dependent on whether or not you're indeed going to push for a Falkon upgrade? I'd advise against volunteering to become maintainer of a port that you're not interested in yourself. (In this case you might probably take the fact that the current QupZilla maintainer wasn't aware of the name-change as a telltale sign that there isn't that much interest to this browser - on Mac. Is it really more lightweight than Safari, for instance?)
Let me repeat: if you're looking for a challenge, let's start with getting my `port:KF5-Frameworks` with the 2 KF5 PortGroup files ready for a PR, at least the tier1 ports. With ready I mean tested against the `port:qt5` family of Qt5 components and if possible on more than a single OS version. I understand Yan has already worked on this so there may be not much more left to do than to decide whether to out-comment or strip the other tier frameworks.
This would give a port:kf5-ki18n without need for introducing a temporary port, and with a bit of luck it'll get KF5 some traction. I have updated the Tier1 and Tier2 ports to 5.47.0 this weekend, so there's not even a need to wait for that anymore.
