kbuildsycoca5 builds binary cache of the data stored in .desktop and MIME type .xml files that the
       KService framework uses to find plugins, applications and other services.

       The KService library uses this database to efficiently provide the information requested of it.

       Users do not normally need to run this application directly; KService will run it if necessary, when any
       of the files whose data is cached are changed.

cachedir/ksycoca5_[lang]_[sha1-of-dirs]
           The KService cache generated by kbuildsycoca5. On UNIX® systems, cachedir is typically
           XDG_CACHE_HOME.

--global
           Ignores any user-set files (in XDG_DATA_HOME). This is currently only supported on UNIX® systems.

       --noincremental
           Rather than using the existing cache and only updating the information that has changed or been
           added, start with an empty cache. Ignored if --global is set.

       --nosignal
           Ordinarily, kbuildsycoca5 sends a signal over D-Bus once the cache is updated to all the applications
           that use KService so that they are always working with the latest information. This option suppresses
           that behaviour.

       --menutest
           Test the generation of the application menu database. Does not actually build the cache.

       --testmode
           Use the QStandardPaths "test mode" to avoid interfering with user data. This is intended for use with
           unit tests.

       --trackmenu-id
           Track a menu ID for debugging.

       --author
           Show author information.
