AFAIK they are not intended to be installed as compiled code at= all.
You are supposed to bundle them, or otherwise compile them from sources
along with your project.


The= y also no longer support the autotools scripts that are provided with the s= ource code as you can read in the README:

There are qui= te some packages depending on them so they can't just be last-rited. Ma= ybe the best solution is to leave them in their current form (perhaps updat= e the SRC_URI) and not accepting package updates to 1.8, instead asking ups= tream packages that depend on them to include them in their source distribu= tion.
