  In that case yes it must have failed so far during build, now cmake will warn you already. It is now the same as with Evdev, Libinput and Synaptics, if you don't have them in system paths you would have to somehow feed the alternative paths to cmake.

  Me too, unfortunately that will take a bit more work untangling the bits. In our source package I use this patch which enables me to bundle only the four headers and get rid of them as build dependencies, then point cmake to the bundle dir: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/kde-plasma/plasma-desktop/files/plasma-desktop-5.18.5-override-include-dirs.patch
