Hm, that's not what I was hoping to hear...

If you have some computing time on the High Sierra machine, perhaps you
could try to compile from scratch, there? The installation procedure
has become fairly simply in theory:

https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Build_from_source/Mac#Installation_using_Craft

(I am not so sure, whether xcode commandline tools do suffice, as
stated, there, though. They do seem to be good enough, if you can use
the package cache from binary-factory.kde.org, but you won't have that
on High Sierra.)

After setting up craft, just type
  craft rkward
and - should that work -
  craft --package rkward
