Help with kde4 "Favorites Launcher"

I'm trying to get this to work:  http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/Fa … ent=117639

The creator describes it best:

"This is a \"containment action\" (mouse action) plugin for the KDE 4.4 Plasma Desktop (beta2 or better).

With this plugin, you can configure a mouse button click to invoke a menu with your favorite applications.

Instead of listing all applications, it only lists the Kickoff favorite applications."

Here's my PKGBUILD, it builds fine with no errors but nothing shows up.  The readme says to reboot and then try to assign it, but the "favorites" option isn't listed even after rebooting.

 
pkgname=kde4-favorites-launcher
pkgver=0.1
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="With this plugin you can configure a mouse button click to invoke a menu with your favorite applications"
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
url="http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/Favorites+Launcher?content=117639"
source=(http://kde-apps.org/CONTENT/content-files/117639-favorites-0.1.tar.bz2)
md5sums=('b60baabccbd302d00923e053db0dc0ae')

build() {
  cd "${srcdir}/favorites-${pkgver}"

  mkdir build
  cd build
  cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` ..
  make
}
