error: Unknown module(s) in QT: qml quick - Qt Creator

Question

I installed Qt Creator via the Software Manager on Linux Mint 18 (x86_64). I made a few sample projects, and some dependencies/packages/libraries/whatever were missing, so I installed the via apt. I made a QtQuick application and in Issues there is an error message saying:

 error: Unknown module(s) in QT: qml quick

I read that there is some libraries to build and link, but I don't know where to find them.

wow you don't need to shout (use CAPS). maybe check here if this is related: http://askubuntu.com/questions/508503/whats-the-development-package-for-qt5-in-14-04 — Hayt, Sep 08 '16 at 12:25
Sorry for the shouting, hope it didn't hurt your eardrums ;-) — darijan2002, Sep 08 '16 at 12:39
Btw, I read something related to the askubuntu post, maye that will fix it. I will check it out. — darijan2002, Sep 08 '16 at 14:02

According to Hayt's answer (and the askubuntu post), I had to install the qtdeclarative5-dev package.

On Fedora Linux, it's `qt5-qtdeclarative-devel` – Keyikedalube Ndang Mar 16 '21 at 06:54
Thanks! I had to install qtquickcontrols2-5-dev as well to make it work for me. – StefanQ Feb 25 '22 at 07:09
