STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Pull from the repo @ https://invent.kde.org/utilities/kbackup/-/tree/master
2.  cmake ..   <-- error after here


OBSERVED RESULT

CMake Warning at CMakeLists.txt:49 (find_package):
  By not providing "FindKF5DocTools.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project
  has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
  "KF5DocTools", but CMake did not find one.

Could not find a package configuration file provided by "KF5DocTools"
  (requested version 5.100.0) with any of the following names:

  Add the installation prefix of "KF5DocTools" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "KF5DocTools_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If
  "KF5DocTools" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it
  has been installed.

You are missing some development packages.
Here on my openSuse they are called kdoctools-devel and libarchive-devel

For me they were kf5-kdoctools-devel & libarchive-devel
But wanted to make this issue known as not all users know how to fix these issues especially when there isnt anything in the doicumentation beyond the basic cammands to install, as a lot are not compiler friendly, and a wall of red text is like "woah". simple fix but there should definately have a deps list if there is going to something that depends on software not commonly found on end user install of linux.
