Trying to compile Plasma 6.4

Discussion:

I'm trying to compile Plasma 6.4. It was released June 17th by the KDE project, and in Ports on the same day, just a few hours later.
Code:
astyle@way-kde6:~ $ uname -a
FreeBSD way-kde6.localdomain 14.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 14.3-RELEASE releng/14.3-n271432-8c9ce319fef7 GENERIC amd64

Thing is, x11/plasma6-libplasma is not compiling for me. And it's stopping the rest of the compilation.

I start with:
Code:
# cd /usr/ports/x11/plasma6-plasma
# make && make install

Compilation goes OK until it's time to compile x11/plasma6-libplasma. That is captured in the attached typescript.txt

Reading through typescript.txt, I can see that the problem is that there's a CMake problem. The interesting part begins on line 765:
Code:
===>  Configuring for plasma6-libplasma-6.4.0

Thing is, I don't know how to fix that, or where to file a PR for this stuff.

I tried checking with portsfallout.com, but it only mentions logs for x11/plasma6-libplasma at v. 6.2.5. Freshports reports that same port being at v. 6.4.0... in Latest repos for amd64 and i386, but older versions for everywhere else!

I guess the moral of this story is: It's not a bad idea to research how to properly report the failure. You just might discover along the way that there is a simple fix to the problem.

I think it's still worthwhile to leave this up - 6.4 is awfully new, and the very fact that I did encounter (and solve, albeit in a hacky workaround) those problems, it may be of use to someone else. But if someone reads this and has insights, please reply to this thread!
