Honestly, I hate the libtraceevent name (should > at least be traceevent), and I have been thinking of changing it. I suppose we can change pkg-config so that the complete path is included, with the downside that file name collisions are more likely to happen. E.g. the kbuffer.h is very a generic name. In libnvme/nvme-cli we had some troubles consuming libuuid because of inconsistent use of include paths. As far I can tell we just need to state what the correct includes paths are. > If we do not have pkg-config working and everything needs to add explicit > include paths, then I'll never be able to change it, or even just get rid > of the subdirectory. I am not really expert how to structure the include paths. As said, I think the most important bit is that we use it consistent. Let me try to add the include path to pkg-config.
