Solution: Install rapidyaml from AUR
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:43 (find_package):
By not providing "Findryml.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "ryml", but
CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "ryml" with any of
the following names:
rymlConfig.cmake
ryml-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "ryml" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"ryml_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "ryml"
provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been
installed.

Clipboard had an error …
“file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.clipboard/contents/ui/main.qml:122:26: Type Private.ClipboardMenu unavailable
qrc:/qt/qml/org/kde/plasma/private/clipboard/ClipboardMenu.qml:209:9: QtLabsModel.DelegateChoice is not a type”
so I decided to build KDE from source 🙂
