This is a module for a interpreted language. It is not much different than a 
python package might need a hardcoded dependency on python-foo if it uses 
that. or a perl package might need a hardcoded dependency on libperl-foo-bar-
baz if it uses the Foo::Bar::Baz perl module for important functionality.

all qml*-module packages are qml (interpreted language) extensions.

And yes. trial and error - or reading the sources - is for many interpreted 
languages the only way of figuring it out.
