Package: libglycin-gtk4-1-dev
Version: 1.2.1+ds-3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
In the /usr/include/glycin-gtk5-1/glycin-gtk4.h file, at the line 3,
glycin.h is included with
#include <glycin.h>
but it is not exist,
Instead of this, the programmer must includes glycin-1/glycin.h file with:
#include <glycin-1/glycin.h>
the /usr/include/glycin/glycin.h file is a part of libglycin-1-dev
package.

It does exist in the search path if you compile with, for example
gcc ... $(pkgconf --cflags glycin-gtk4-1)
and link with
gcc ... $(pkgconf --cflags --libs glycin-gtk4-1)
which is how this library is designed to be used.
GLib documents the equivalent pattern here:
https://docs.gtk.org/glib/compiling.html, and GTK:
https://docs.gtk.org/gtk4/compiling.html. Nearly all libraries based on
GLib and GTK follow the same pattern.
This is a very common pattern for C libraries in general, especially in
GNOME and GNOME-adjacent packages, using the design documented in
<https://ometer.com/parallel.html> decades ago. Many non-GNOME libraries
like libdbus and SDL also use it.
Instead of this, the programmer must includes glycin-1/glycin.h file with:
#include <glycin-1/glycin.h>
That is not how it is intended to be used, and is not guaranteed to
continue to work. Please don't use #include
<glycin-gtk5-1/glycin-gtk4.h> or similar constructs, either.
