Thank you for reporting the problem!

Most likely it is a RPATH problem (see doc/COMPILE.md). Passing -DTARGET_PLUGIN_FOLDER="" -DCMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH=ON to cmake should be enough. Then kdb run_all should hopefully work.

Thank you for the quick response. The additional CMake options did indeed solve the problem.
