that import is only valid if you are making a plasmoid. through a raw
QML thingy you can't use core components. core components is only
meant as a plasmoid goodie bag.

you can still use org.kde.plasmacomponents afik though. but if you're
using a dataengine in the first place...and a QML applet..i have to
ask why it isn't a plasmoid in the first place. probably make things a
lot easier...

as for 'packages', the imports are in
kde-runtime/plasma/declarativeimports, so having that should be fine.
