KMyMoney 4.8.5 build fails with alkimia problem

[Brendan Coupe]

You can try my build scripts for KMM if you'd like.

I've never tried them for 4.8 but they work for 5.1, the master and
released versions if you have the tar ball in the build directory. You can
easily switch between compiled versions once they are built and stay up to
date with the latest updates and features.
