KAppTemplate and KDevelop 5.x are not coinstallable

[Simon Wächter]

Hi Alexander & Kevin

Thank you for the hint. Strange that we didn't notice that earlier
(Also that no package system complained about that file conflict). I
recommend that we delete the qmake template in KAppTemplate and keep
the one in KDevelop. KDevelop also provides other pure Qt templates.

With review request 126185 we now have a global macro and I should
port the CMake code. My personal idea for the future is that every
library/framework provides an own set of templates (Based on the new
kdetemplate_add_app_templates macro) and we move all KAppTemplate (and
KDevelop) templates to the correct project/repository. With this
approach we don't have to maintain templates (or even programming
languages like Python/Ruby) which we don't know/good enough, for
example the old KOffice, KRunnter etc. Every project should be
responsible for their own templates - they know them.

Any thoughts about this idea?

Simon
