I'm trying to install KLatexFormula and it's cmake script is giving the error that it cant find the package config files Qt5DesignerConfig.cmake and qt5designer-config.cmake.

Cmake asked me to add the prefix of Qt5Designer to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH. I found the path to Qt5Designer with a quick

apt-files search Qt5Designer

The file I was looking for showed up under the path

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/Qt5Designer/Qt5DesignerConfig.cmake

under qttools5-dev package. I believe this is the correct spot, so I added the prefix path with 

export QT_CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake"

and the path shows up if I check the command 

export

However, building the cmake file again gave me the same missing packages. In the process of trying to work out what was wrong I went

cd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake

At this point I saw that there was no Qt5Designer entry in this folder. My qttools5-dev is completely up to date. Anyone know how I can fix it?

And I have tried this already and get the same search results as that answer.

To anyone else having the issue with qttools5-dev-tools not installing Qt Designer stuff try

sudo apt install qttools5-dev

instead (note there is no -tools at the end).

I was also lacking qt5svg and qt5x11extras, and these were solved with

sudo apt install libqt5svg5-dev

and 

sudo apt install libqt5x11extras5-dev

respectively.

Anyone who has this issue you would need to install the following:

apt install libqt5charts5-dev
install qtbase5-dev libqt5x11extras5-dev libqt5svg5-dev qtdeclarative5-dev libqt5charts5-dev libmuparser-dev
