help build kde-connect kde

[Utvikler Konto]

Adding instructions for building to the wiki, is something that really 
should be done, as it considerably lowers the barrier for people picking 
up and messing around with the project.

I recently started looking at it and have built it with Qt Creator, and 
I can add instructions if no one else wants to do it. Only thing is, I'm 
not really familiar with the Qt ecosystem, and I've now run into a 
problem with not managing to debug the KDE side of things (Android side 
is fine), and it gives me this error:

This does not seem to be a "Debug" build.

Setting breakpoints by file name and line number may fail.


Section .debug_info: Not found.

Section .debug_abbrev: Not found.

Section .debug_line: Not found.

Section .debug_str: Not found.

Section .debug_loc: Not found.

Section .debug_range: Not found.

Section .gdb_index: Not found.

Section .note.gnu.build-id: Found.

Section .gnu.hash: Found.

Section .gnu_debuglink: Not found.



And, indeed, there does not seem to be a debug build. How do you guys 
manage to debug things? Are you even using Qt Creator, or is KDevelop 
the preferred IDE?


As a last little nag, there's s'posed to be work done on replying to SMS 
from the desktop, anyone know if there's any progress on that?
