EXPECTED RESULT

SUCCESS!

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS 
Linux/KDE Plasma: 20.04.2 LTS (Focal Fossa) 5.11.0-27-generic
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: plasmashell 5.18.5

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Given that a lot of us would never use any of the web services and perhaps quite a few of the other plugins, a build/config option to omit those might make build times faster and avoid some of these dependency hangs.
