I looked for a packaged named libzfs1-dev or libzfs-dev and couldn't find any
for Debian GNU/kFreeBSD Wheezy. It seems like the only way to get the ZFS
headers, like libzfs.h, is to download the source of libzfs1 or zfsutils.

We should have a proper development package with the libzfs headers, just like
any other library.

Do you have some user of libzfs.h ?
The dev package is not provided on purpose - there is a problem with stability 
of ABI.

zfsutils (8.3~svn226546-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Drop all -dev packages. The libraries we are providing should never
    have been provided by the zfsutils source package as they randomly
    break upon upgrades as upstream does not provide any version information 
along
    the exported symbols.
