+==== Standard paths for Qt5 ====
+
+A very important issue for Qt5 and KF5 is that QStandardPaths gets set appropriately for OSX in general and especially for the OSX/CI system, as this installs all frameworks and apps into separate install roots. To enable Qt5/KF5 apps to find the correct locations for files (for configuration, read-only data, writeable data, etc.) it is necessary to patch QStandardPaths. This is done as a temporary hack in
+{{{
+~/scripts/patches/qt5/kf5-qt5/patch-qstandardpaths_mac.cpp.diff
+}}}
+and still required more work. The patch enables kdoctools and kdelibs4support to locate their files successfully (which had up to now to be handled using an even nastier workaround), but apart from that there are still problems with config files. '''In short: this is still work in progress...'''

+More information about standard paths is given for [http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qstandardpaths.html Qt5] and [https://community.kde.org/Frameworks/Epics/StandardPathsMigration KF5].
