Screenshot of plasmoid

Greetings

I have Kubuntu 16.04.1 and I'm trying to update KDE Connect from the source file (just as http://askubuntu.com/questions/817566/how-to-install-kde-connect-1-0-on-kubuntu ).

I have successfully set up the environment for compiling using [this guide from KDE](https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Build_from_source) and I'm able to run the cmake to the source files [as you can see here.](http://paste.ubuntu.com/23478114/)

Then, I proceed to install using checkinstall and [gives this output](http://paste.ubuntu.com/23478142/) and proceed to reboot to apply the changes on the kdeconnect, but after rebooting, the plasmoid brings these errors:

    Error loading QML File: file:///usr/local/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.kdeconnect/contents/ui/main.qml:48:34: Type FullRepresentation unavaliable
    Error loading QML File: file:///usr/local/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.kdeconnect/contents/ui/FullRepresentation.qml:55:23: Type DeviceDelegate unavaliable

    file:///usr/local/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.kdeconnect/contents/ui/Battery.qml:26:1: PluginChecker is not a type

I tried to "debug" starting the plasmoid from terminal, and this is the output:

    dguerrero@XPS:~$ plasmawindowed org.kde.kdeconnect

If I run ls to the route, all files are there

    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1598 nov 11 08:20 Sftp.qml

I found PluginChecker in /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qml/org/kde/kdeconnect/PluginChecker.qml

    root@XPS:~# find /usr/ -name PluginChecker*
    /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qml/org/kde/kdeconnect/PluginChecker.qml          
    
I guessed it shouldn't be there, so i copied it to /usr/local/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.kdeconnect/contents/ui/

As soon as I copied it there, plasmoid came to life.
Inmediately, I tried to pair my Sony Xperia Z2 (using android app v1.4.4 from play store) but after a few seconds after paired, disconnects for about minute, but I'm not sure if that is related with this same problem (hadn't that problem with 0.8 version and same app).


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Purge current packages
2. Compile and install updated source packages


Actual Results:  
Plasmoid displayed multiple error messages.

Expected Results:  
Plasmoid loaded succesfully and show paired device.
