Edit: issue made and fixed https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-keyboard/-/issues/12

Looks like I need kde-gitlab account fpr making issues.

I couldn’t compile it,

cmake …

In the future, you can generally solve these sorts of build errors by just installing the development package for whatever library is missing. On Debian-based systems, that would be something along the lines of sudo apt install libecm<tab><tab> see what appears, choose one which looks reasonable with -dev suffix

Thank you.

In this case installing ecm-tools (I use arch) didn’t fix it. That was the first thing I tried before making an issue.

It needed extra packages for cmake (refer to the issue for details)
