[SRU] [noble] merkuro-calendar fails to start

[Åka Sikrom]

How to reproduce:
- boot Noble Desktop image (ubuntu-24.04-desktop-amd64.iso)
- open Terminal
- Run 'apt update && apt install -y merkuro'
- Launch 'Merkuro Calendar' from GNOME application menu

Expected result:
Application starts and GUI is displayed.

Actual result:
Application does not start, and no graphical error message is displayed.

Suspected cause:
Merkuro apparently requires three packages which are not listed under Depends in its deb control file (see attached terminal log).

Workaround:
Install packages qml-module-org-kde-kirigami-addons-labs-mobileform, qml-module-qt-labs-platform and qml-module-org-kde-kitemmodels manually.

Here is a suggested source patch adding the missing dependencies to debian/control.

[ Impact ]

 * Crashes on start.

 * Adding missing qml modules allows the program to run.

[ Test Plan ]

 * Install package and try to run, it will complain about missing qml and crash.
 * these should allow someone who is not familiar with the affected

[ Where problems could occur ]

 * This package simply adds existing qml module packages to runtime dependencies to enable it to run and will have no impact on other packages.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package merkuro - 23.08.5-0ubuntu4

---------------
merkuro (23.08.5-0ubuntu4) oracular; urgency=medium

  * Add missing runtime qml. (LP: #2063936)
  * SRu: (LP: #2065063)
