Review request for KDE Frameworks.
By Andre Heinecke.
Repository: kxmlgui
                                 Description

This is part of a three patch series that aims to allow a "leightweight" buil
d of KXmlGui without DBus and KService dependencies. I've added the patches t
o: https://phabricator.kde.org/T1390 I'm not sure if I can create reviews tha
t depend on changes from another review, I'll try and if it does not work I'l
l open one after another.

Global shortcuts are a nice optional feature to have. But as they are not str
ictly neccessary for the core functionality of KXmlGui, as I see it, and pull
 in an extra dependency to DBus and need runtime support on the target platfo
rm they should be optional.

This (and the other changes) add lots of unloved ifdefs, I could understand i
f thats disliked. But let me explain the background of this change:

I'm currently updating Kleopatra in Gpg4win to a KDE Frameworks based build. This is nice. Frameworks are awesome, I can just pick what I need and don't h
ave dependencies to lots of things that are actually not needed.
Then comes KXmlGui, adds 20 Framework dependencies, and I don't know what to do.
I want:
- configureable "KDE Style" GUI
- configurable Shortcuts
- KDE Standardactions (e.g. Help / WhatsThis)
- kbugreport
- KDE Integration in an KDE Environment

But I don't want:
- Global Shortcuts (we don't have kded so this won't work for us anyway)
- DBus (our dbus is directory scoped and there are no other applications usin
g dbus installed by us)
- KService dependency (System configuration has been troublesome in the past on Windows and is not neccessary if we provide just a single installation)

So these Patches are my way out of this Problem. Without the optional package
s KXmlGui provides what I want and does not depend on what I don't want.
                                   Testing

Compiled with and without dependency. Tested Kleopatra against it.
Not yet tested on Windows, will do so in the next days.
