Trying to build qt-creator v3.2.2 from source on Ubuntu 14.10. Fails. Qmake can't find qt5.3.1

$ qmake -r
...
Project WARNING: QmlDesigner plugin has been disabled.
Project WARNING: This plugin requires Qt 5.3.1 or newer.
...

Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: designercomponents-private

Looks like qmake is built against qt5.3.0...

qmake -version
QMake version 3.0
Using Qt version 5.3.0 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

..But some libraries appears to be linked against qt5.3.1:

$ apt-cache search libqt5 --names-only | awk '{ print $1 }' | xargs apt-cache show | grep -e 'Package\|Version' | grep 5.3.1 -B 1
Package: libqt5script5
Version: 5.3.1+dfsg-3ubuntu1

Package: libqt5scripttools5
Version: 5.3.1+dfsg-3ubuntu1

Package: libqt5xmlpatterns5
Version: 5.3.1-4ubuntu3

Package: libqt5xmlpatterns5-dev
Version: 5.3.1-4ubuntu3

Package: libqt5xmlpatterns5-private-dev
Version: 5.3.1-4ubuntu3

Package: libqt5websockets5
Version: 5.3.1-1ubuntu1

Package: libqt5websockets5-dev
Version: 5.3.1-1ubuntu1

What package am I missing that will allow me to use qt5.3.1? I haven't found a qt5base or qmake package that is of version 5.3.1.

The 14.10 Release Notes only says "Qt updated to version 5.3", but the fact that some libraries appears to be of version 5.3.1 suggests to me that maybe 5.3.1 is supported.

Sometimes, it is hard to track build dependencies using cmake/make build errors. Better to install all build dependency used by release package using:

sudo apt-get build-dep qtcreator

This will save you much time, looking for just few addition dependencies if needed.
