Hi Lisandro Damián Nicanor,

In fact, locating the plugin to ship it on a bundled app is my point: I build a Qt5 application and I would like to make it available for Wheezy without backports (some of the machines I'm targeting have limited internet access and won't have access to backports easily), for this purpose I have to ship Qt5 libs and plugins within the app.

Regards,

Paul

We are actually proactively removing them for every plugin. The rationale is
that so far we could not find a reason to ship them, as the only use we could
hear of so far is to locate the plugin to be able to ship it on a bundled app.

Of course if you have a good reason to ship this CMake files please do not
heasitate in telling us, so we can reconsider this.

Thanks for your bug report!
