Bug Description

Hello to the ElementaryOS maintainers,
I'm an average linux guy who recently installed ElementaryOS on my new laptop.

I wanted to install Qt Creator and found it through apt. Everything seemed to work perfectly until I tried to run the Qt Quick 2 provided template. I got an error message from the debugger complaining: ' module "QtQuick" is not installed '. After some digging I looked at all the qt related packages available from apt and installed the "qtdeclarative5-qtquick2-plugin" package. After that everything seems to work fine again.

So I just want to point out the fact that Qt Creator 3.0.1 seems to expect the "qtdeclarative5-qtquick2-plugin" package to be installed by default. But running elementary OS 0.3.2 Freya (64-bit), it is not the case :-/

I'm reporting this issue because I think fixing this bug (I think it is) might help improve the user experience of others current and future ElementaryOS users ;-)

So far I really love the work you are doing around the ElementaryOS project. Having so much ease installing this beautiful OS on my machine feels great ;-)
Thank you very much and keep up the good work !!!
