Meant to add potential alternatives here: The easiest likely would be to just add an install script that globs *.h. Alternatively we could build a file list at configure time, and then install that with install_header(). The advantage would be that it be available for things like cpluspluscheck, the disadvantage that something needs to trigger reconfiguration to update the file list. Greetings, Andres Freund
