Move them one by one to e-c-m when the library in kdelibs/ has been moved to tierX/, where it can't/shouldn't use kdelibs/cmake/modules/ anymore. Here is an overview over Find-files and what should be done with them: http://community.kde.org/KDE_Core/Platform_11/Buildsystem/FindFilesSurvey Some changes are listed here: http://techbase.kde.org/Development/ECM_SourceIncompatChanges So e.g. we should not use an own copy of FindX11.cmake anymore in KF5, but the one which comes with cmake. > kcoreaddons > --FindFAM.cmake > kidletime > --FindX11.cmake > --FindX11XCB.cmake > --FindXCB.cmake > solid > --FindHUPNP.cmake > --FindIOKit.cmake Not sure FindIOKit.cmake is actually needed.

Getting a Find-module into cmake goes together with volunteering to maintain it in the forseeable future, i.e. caring about bugs reported against it etc. in cmake. No KDE repository/project/module except extra-cmake-modules should install any Find-modules anymore with KF5. So either the repositories get their own copies of the files they use, or it must be upstreamed somewhere, e-c-m or cmake. For e-c-m basically the same compatibility guarantees as for cmake itself apply: http://techbase.kde.org/Policies/CMake_and_Source_Compatibility http://techbase.kde.org/Policies/CMake_Coding_Style Alex
