Comment 1 Matin Lotfaliei 2024-01-21 03:43:08 UTC 
I learned that kcoreaddons uses KDE_INSTALL_PLUGINDIR variable for the installation.
Comment 2 Matin Lotfaliei 2024-01-21 04:26:55 UTC 
I learned that I need to set QT_MAJOR_VERSION instead of QT_VERSION_MAJOR before including the KDEInstallDirs to fix it.

Yes, the order does matter here.
