Sure. Hence my question. If it is public because it is believed to be
useful to the world, and getting proper public library treatment
(so-version management and what not), then Debian (I really care about
Kubuntu here :P) should package the development related files. Right
now they are not packaged but installed by cmake which seems like a
problem in either case.
