This dependency has unwanted consequences, as on ubuntu-touch (armhf,
amd64, i386) or ubuntu-desktop (non-free drivers) mesa is not providing
the gl implementation. It's managed by seeds else-wise, e.g. ubuntu-
drivers-common / per-device seeds. Essentially, installations that do
not have a valid gl implementation provided will not work, but it's not
qtdeclarative5-qtquick2-plugin to pull one in, as it doesn't know which
one it should be pulling in (e.g. hybris, mesa, nvidia, etc.).

How was the machine installed which didn't have any valid gl
implementation available? Or alternatively, does qtdeclrative-
opensource-src needs fixing / checking to work correctly with all gl
implementations we care about? (android/hybris, mesa (native), nvidiat /
ati). Cause libgl1-mesa-dri results in pulling in software Gallium3D
rendereing on to ubuntu-touch devices which is about 40MB of
dependencies, none of which we'd want to run (ever).
