CMake Warning (dev) in CMakeLists.txt:
No cmake_minimum_required command is present. A line of code such as

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.6)

should be added at the top of the file. The version specified may be lower
if you wish to support older CMake versions for this project. For more
information run "cmake --help-policy CMP0000".
This warning is for project developers. Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.

Compilation failed, sorry icon sad [SOLVED] cmake error when compiling plasmoid on Ubuntu

I installed kdelibs5-dev and I was able to compile it.

Hope this helps.
