That part is sorted - I set the theme to Maldives instead of
maldives.  The lfs theme works here.  Then I tried to use Plasma
(that was the main point of this exercise), but even after adding
/opt/qt5/bin to the PATH in /etc/sddm.conf I just get a black screen
with an xmessage window which says "Could not start D-Bus. Can you
call qdbus ?"

For now, this is just a reminder that changing to a missing or
broken theme gives a white screen instead of the sddm greeter.  And
the breeze theme (from kf5, I think) seems to be broken (tested
before adding /opt/qt5/bin to sddm.conf, but I'm not minded to
retest).
