Then we should probably include the marketplace email address in this thread.

There's some license shenanegans going on.
However there was a later update:
 
So I don't know why it was not included. 
It seems that some people (myself included) objected to commericalizing a module that was based on a open source engine to start with. 
 
 
Yes, I've seen the discussions about the license, but I thought it was solved.

Given that The Qt Company is selling the QtPdf module under a commercial license on the marketplace I was thinking that
they remove the QtPdf artefacts from the QtWebEngine packages. That would make sense for commercial users.
 
However, for open source users it looks like a bug in the installer.
