Build issues

[akwala]

Firstly, in the instructions for building, the path-to-source in the cmake command (after mkdir build && cd build) should be ../sources/.

Secondly, cmake can't find KF5Notifications. I've tried this with a repo cloned from git (after doing git submodule update --init --recursive) as well as with the downloaded source archive.

$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/user/.local -DKDE_INSTALL_USE_QT_SYS_PATHS=ON ../sources/

Thanks. Would be good to add this info under Dependencies in README.md.
