FYI, Mandriva packages it this way too. I did have it installed so
wouldn't have noticed.
Just because a tarball will result in the building of a binary, does not
mean that you have to include all the files created via make install in
that tarball. Most packages have libXXX and libXXX-devel etc.
subpackages created from them and splitting out different
modules/plugins/binaries is fairly common practice too.
The pkgconfig check will check that the library development headers are
installed but I would argue it doesn't mean that an example application
built on that library is installed.
So I think the patch is correct like you say, and to be honest I've no
idea why I even bothered to write this mail as you've put the patch in,
but I just thought I'd wax lyrical for a bit :p
