Further hacking was needed on this one : the Makefile at the root dir 
that is used by debian/rules has been generated with qmake from qt4. You 
need to regenerate it using qt5 qmake, fix the script that generates the 
package dependency (.pc is wrong otherwyse), and fix the mkspecs 
location in the .install

Feel free to ask me for modified package sources...

The crash was due to the fact that kqoauth upstream and ubuntu version I 
picked is still compiled for qt4 by default.
