I would skip step 3 and 4 above. They won't help. Building should be the same from a tarball as from git (ok, it then comes without translations). If you need those, the process is a bit different. In case you're interested, I can provide details.

Also, I recommend to use KMyMoney sourcecode from git (5.0) and not master. This will be much closer to 5.0.6 and a soon to be 5.0.7. AqBanking has to be from its master branch. Oh, and don't forget to get gwenhywfar also from git (master).

Yes, at least for the 5.0 branch.
