Building KDevelop master with craft on Windows failing

Just for completeness I will answer the remainder of the questions that I
posted

That is because there is no master version available. This can be verified
by doing:

craft --search extragear/kdevelop-pg-qt

Which tells that (at time of writing this) the only available version is 2.1

Examining the executable with dependency walker reveals that there is a
.dll dependency like so
KDevelop.exe
    kdevplatformlanguage.dll
        grantlee_templates.dll
             qt5scriptd.dll

The qt5scriptd.dll dependency was unsatisfied So I added this line to the
grantlee.py blueprint

self.runtimeDependencies["/libs/qt5/qtscript"] = none

And was able to start KDevelop correctly.

Kind Regards

Morten
