Hopefully I'm not way off, but I believe if you build alkimia from its 
master branch, that will be fine for KMM from master. Alkimia6 is 
actually already somewhat old (and doesn't depend on Qt/KDE6).  I think 
v8.1.76 is the latest alkimia release - preparing for 8.2, which will be 
required by KMM 5.2.  (Yes, the numbering can get confusing.)  In fact, 
I'd ask where you got that KMM requires alkimia 6?  I think it actually 
requires 8.1.72. (I've got my builds automated (Gentoo linux) so I don't 
know the exact versions being used for builds from master.

Have you tried simply building alkimia from master branch against Qt5/KDE5?
