He is working on some other stuff that has deadline on friday, so no chance to get it done before, after that maybe the configure fix and some minor stuff in cmake-env and a bigger event from 05.05 til 09.05. I can look at them after this all is done, but the problem is not the scripts (for the missing file it is, but at the last update it was existing), the problem is that kde-env-path-queries return gnome paths, which is not expected. So a clean build env should do the trick.
I would suggest cowbuilder.
