   FWIW, with the 4.8.0 tarball, I had to add the following:

CMAKE_ARGS+=    -DKMyMoney2_SOURCE_DIR=${WRKSRC}/kmymoney -DKMyMoney2_BINARY_DIR=${WRKSRC}/kmymoney

This is pkgsrc-speak, but the intent should be reasonably clear. CMAKE_ARGS
get included in the cmake command invocation, and ${WRKSRC} is the top level
directory of the sources. These two cmake variables are referenced in
kmymoney/dialogs/settings/CMakeLists.txt, in part to locate kmymoneysettings.h .

   I'm still having other problems building, which I mentioned in another
thread, but an extraneous issue on my development system prevented me from
working on it this past weekend. The above did seem to help, though.

   Good luck...
