Cmake doesn't recognize polkit-qt

[Mario Blättermann]

First, I don't use Ubuntu, but it is impossible to report a bug for Qapt in KDE bugzilla (only Muon), so I have no other choice to report it here.

I try to install Qapt in Fedora, in other words, I try to build a Fedora package. Fedora ships Polkit-Qt in version 0.103.0, which should be sufficient actually, but i get the following error message:

CMake Error at cmake/modules/FindPolkitQt-1.cmake:53 (message):
  PolkitQt-1 version 0.103.0 was found, but it is too old. Please install
  0.95.1 or newer.

What i have to do to let Cmake recognize the installed version correctly?

For the time being I've patched cmake/modules/FindPolkitQt-1.cmake as follows:

But now I get new errors:

The problem would be that my Apt version is Apt-rpm which is too old. That's why I'm not really willing to continue on working on libqapt for Fedora. Even if we could solve the current problems, I think some more will come up, and the apt-rpm project rests in peace for some years. You can safely close this request now (Sorry, I haven't found any way here to close it).

FWIW, please report this kind of issue at bugs.kde.org. It takes considerably longer to get from launchpad to kde ;)
