Hi,
I am on Ubuntu 14.04 Qt v5.7. I am trying to run the demo provided in the QML-Material repository. The error I get is:

QQmlApplicationEngine failed to load component
qrc:/main.qml:2 module "Material" is not installed
qrc:/main.qml:3 module "Material.ListItems" is not installed
qrc:/main.qml:2 module "Material" is not installed
qrc:/main.qml:3 module "Material.ListItems" is not installed

I tried adding this line in main.cpp:
engine.addImportPath("qrc:///");
But, it didn't help in removing the error (It didnt have any visible effect).
What should I do to make the demo run?

Hi daemonSlayer, have you built and installed qml-material yet? I can recreate the problem you're having by trying to run the demo before installing the qml-material.

After following the instructions for a global install, running the demo succeeds for me. Could you post the steps you took before running the demo?

Thanks!

I hadn't installed the qml-material beforehand as I have been using it as a submodule, downloading and directly using! How do I install it ? I don't have qmake installed as the qt I have is installed using the .run file and not the Ubuntu provided one.
