  kdegraphics-thumbnailers 4:15.12.3-0ubuntu1 uses the wrong path for

Bug description:
  kdegraphics-thumbnailers 4:15.12.3-0ubuntu1 puts gsthumbnail.so and rawthumbnail.so under /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/plugins/ (see http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/amd64/kdegraphics-thumbnailers/filelist for the newest package file listing).
  Dolphin looks for plugins under /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/ (see http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/amd64/dolphin/filelist for the newest package file listing).
  Because of the discrepancy between the two pathes Dolphin is unable to invoke kdegraphics-thumbnailers.

  This can be reproduced with the Kubuntu 16.04 LTS live image. After
  installing kdegraphics-thumbnailers and activating it under the
  Dolphin preferences no thumbnails are generated for PDF files.

  There is a workaround until the package is fixed. This command will
  link all the files from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/plugins/ to
  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/:

  sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/plugins/* /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
  gnu/qt5/plugins/

  The installation routine of the package should be fixed to unpack
  gsthumbnail.so and rawthumbnail.so under /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
  gnu/qt5/plugins/.
