Additional context
Add any other context about the problem here. [e.g. screenshots/logs]
Bumping, I have a similar CMake build issue. @SEGFAULT3102 , the KDE plugin on the store is ported by Slynobody. I'm unsure if that would have anything to do with it, but I do not have it installed on my system, for context. Are you sure you have Qt 6.12? That seems to be the number for the KDE Frameworks version.

Building always fails at [114/134] for me, with log

I attempted with sudo, but it fails at the exact same point.
Additional Context Do not sudo. I was testing. Ironically, it still seems to "install," but I do not trust being without those last twenty components.
Got WallpaperEngine running on my system via the debian package for plugin lib [https://github.com/slynobody/SteamOS-wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin/releases/tag/0.5.5c], CMAKE build failure still unresolved.
Segfault, if possible, could you uninstall slynobody's plugin via apt and the deb package in Discover? Temporarily, I mean. After which, please log out and log back in to clear any stragglers that might still be loaded. After which, please try building from source and see where it ends off.
It likely won't build still, but it would be interesting to see if the CMake Build Failure changes.
bumping, seeming to have the same issue as everyone else in this thread :pensive:

package also weirdly caused me to have kernel panic so beware?
(Random driveby person here)
Looks like 'sudo cmake ..' needed not just 'cmake ..' would do the trick; or are you expecting a pure homedir install?
Sudo does not complete it, either. I attempted it as a test in my install, it crashes at the exact same point for me.
If anyone here attempts it, please make sure to have a Timeshift of prior installed. You will have issues.
The problem occurs on the latest version of Qt6. I referenced a workaround patch from here. Manually define Qt6Gui_PRIVATE_INCLUDE_DIRS CMake variable and send a PR #547
Using newly installed Arch, following installation steps in readme.md, could not find qpa/qplatformnativeinterface.h.
But actually there is such file:
find /usr -name "qplatformnativeinterface.h" 2>/dev/null
/usr/include/qt6/QtGui/6.10.0/QtGui/qpa/qplatformnativeinterface.h
/usr/include/qt/QtGui/5.15.18/QtGui/qpa/qplatformnativeinterface.h
Couldn't get it. Huge thanks if anyone can help.
