Packaging devel-only C++ library



Hello,

I'd like to package a new version of https://github.com/ARPA-SIMC/meteosatlib,
for which I'm upstram, which depends on the recently freed
https://gitlab.eumetsat.int/open-source/PublicDecompWT

PublicDecompWT is a C++ development-only library released by Eumetsat,
with functions needed to decompress MeteoSat images. Historically it has
had a relatively stable API, but no guarantees are made about an ABI as
far as I know, and to make matters worse ABI-wise, it's C++.

These options come to my mind:

 - use git submodules and pull PublicDecompWT into meteosatlib, in a way
   slightly more convenient to the current instructions of obtaining the
   zipfile from eumetsat and putting it there
 - package PublicDecompWT as a devel-only library in Debian, and
   build-depend on it for meteosatlib.

Suggestions? Other ideas? Special things to keep in mind in cases like
this (Built-Using?) ?


Enrico
