Public bug reported: I have tried to compile example plugin mentioned here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/-/blob/master/contrib/gs-plugin-example.c and here: https://developer.gnome.org/gnome-software/stable/plugins.html I have installed package gnome-software-dev (required for compilation)
But I am not able to compile it: $ gcc -shared -o libgs_plugin_example.so gs-plugin-example.c -fPIC `pkg-config --libs --cflags gnome-software` -DI_KNOW_THE_GNOME_SOFTWARE_API_IS_SUBJECT_TO_CHANGE In file included from gs-plugin-example.c:5: /usr/include/gnome-software/gnome-software.h:16:10: fatal error: gs-app-collation.h: No such file or directory 16 | #include <gs-app-collation.h> | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. It appears package gnome-software-dev lacks some headers.
