You probably have to add the following somewhere:

LIBS += /path/to/libqmldbg_tcp.a

Then you should be able to to link the final library or application also with QML debugging enabled. Mind that this way your application has the QML debug server built in and whenever you start it with the right arguments or call QQmlDebuggingEnabler::startTcpServer() it will open a debug port and accept connections from anywhere. With a dynamically linked Qt you have the option to delete the plugin in order to prevent this.

regards,
