Joaquim,
I'm not sure this is a good idea. Shapelib and its header file is an internal
dependency of GDAL/OGR and should probably remain as such. I'd note we made
recently necessary changes to some utilities (gdaltindex comes to mind) to
use OGR API and drop their explicit dependency to shapelib.
I'd note that, in some builds of GDAL, shapelib symbols embedded in the
Shapefile driver could even not be exported (for example if configure is run
with --with-hide-internal-symbols)
Joaquim,
I concur with Even. It is not the practice of the project to install the
include files of sublibraries like shapelib (dgnlib, tiff, geotiff, etc)
and it isn't something I want to start.
Best regards,
