QT Android Extras missing in QT 5.6.0 Mar 2016 (Creator 3.6.1)

QTUserForAndroid

Hi, i downloaded and installed the newly QT open source 5.6.0 (Creator 3.6.1) of March 2016. ("Qt 5.6.0 for Android (Windows 32-bit, 1.1 GB) ")
I installed it, and and noticed that QT Android Extras module is not in the list of components (as was the case with QT 5.6.0 in the installation steps.
Nether-less i continued with the install - all went well. But when compiling a example notifications which uses QT Android Extras (and was working in QT5.6.0) i get the error "The system cannot find the path specified. Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: androidextras"

I started a re-install and compared the available components to select during installation to have more than QT Extras missing - seems like all Android stuff is missing!!

Is this a problem with the new installation file? Can i download this module somewhere and add it to my installation? Is it discontinued?

I am kind of newbie in QT, so please excuse me if i am asking something which is quite obvious.

Thanks

Something's not clear, is there only the QtAndroidExtras module missing in your setup ?

When i installed QT 5.5.1 (open source windows host offline installer) during installation you get a window where the user can select which Components to install e.g. Select Components" Under the QT heading in the selection there is Qt 5.5, Tools and Qt Extras which i selected.
In QT 5.5.6 installation, only Qt 5.6 and Tools are available for selection. Qt Extras is not available option to select. Completely missing from the selection option.

See the screen shots here

Is QT Exrtas installed with the installer? Or is it maybe only visible as a selection option if some other program e.g. SDK,NDK ,,,,,, is installed? I had QT 5.5.1 on my PC running all fine, and then installed the Qt 5.6 without uninstalling Qt 5.5.1. Also i do not install Android SDK, NDK, Apche, Java, Mingw again. Just a thought.

What do you have if you expand the Qt 5.6 branch ?

I uploaded a screen shot to the drive link above called QT5_6_Components_Expanded.jpg

Here is a list (QT 5.6 Components)
MinGW
Android x86
ARMv7
Source Components (Q Source , LGPLv3 pacakges, Qt Script)
QT Canvas
Qt Location
Qt Quick Controls
Qt WebView
QT3D
Qt labs
QT serialbus
Qt Scripts depreciated

Tools
QT Creator 3.6.1
MinGW

I do not see any QT extras, the components is also the same as QT5.5.1 (within QT 5.6 expanded)

Also on the drive link is QT5_5_1_Components_Expanded.JPG for reference.

Thanks

Qt Web view in Qt5. 5 QT Extras moved to QT 5.6 components expanded.

Is QT Web view the only QT extras component.

Then something else is wrong. The notifications
example says that qt extras is missing when opening with qt 5. 6 In QT 5.5.1 this example is working. See my original post.

I will run the example again tomorrow.

Thanks

It might be a packaging issue.
