Hi Rob, you've got a point – in soft_register.hpp, there's classes that contain exported symbols, it should probably be installed.
component_file.hpp, dirty_tracked.hpp and eeprom.h really only contain implementation details; I'm not the UHD maintainer, but I'd say these files shouldn't get installed, as the types defined therein are only used in non-public-API functionality, and thus are subject to change without notice. Don't depend on these types existing! In fact, they can change without the UHD ABI compat version being bumped, as far as I'd set a versioning policy. These are internals! The problem you're setting yourself up, IMHO, is that even if you have all the headers, the symbols (function bytecode) are still in libuhd.so and not necessarily exported (that's what UHD_API does), so you might end up coding something that compiles very fine and then fails to link unless you start modifying default visibilities, at some surprising point during development. Hey, maybe there's an easy way out. Can you tell us what you're doing in your custom multi_usrp, and why you're not simply modifying the stock multi_usrp?
