Muon Package Manager broken in Kubuntu 16.04

[Rick Timmis]

Hi friends

I have been working off and on trying to get Muon Package Manager to 
build and run, and today I did it ( on 15.10 ).
I will try setting up a build on 16.04
I have said that I am willing to continue maintenance of MPM.

Now that I can build from the Master branch, I am in a position to start 
helping with it :-D

Please let me know how I should proceed

Best Wishes
Rick Timmis
