[Bug 450672] [NEW] libqdbm++-dev doesn't find own includes

[bijwaard]

Public bug reported:

When I include the qdbm headers like this (since they are under
/usr/include/qdbm):

#include <qdbm/depot.h>
#include <qdbm/cabin.h>
#include <qdbm/vista.h>

I get the following problems during compilation with g++:

/usr/include/qdbm/vista.h:31:19: error: depot.h: No such file or directory
/usr/include/qdbm/vista.h:32:19: error: curia.h: No such file or directory
/usr/include/qdbm/vista.h:33:19: error: cabin.h: No such file or directory
/usr/include/qdbm/vista.h:126:19: error: villa.h: No such file or directory
...

This is due to the fact that these headers assume they are not in a
subdirectory, i.e. they include each other as follows (from vista.h):

#include <depot.h>
#include <curia.h>
#include <cabin.h>

Clearly they should include from the install directory in
/usr/include/qdbm (else every developer has to add /usr/include/qdbm to
its include path) by either using the path relative to /usr/include:

#include <qdbm/depot.h>
#include <qdbm/curia.h>
#include <qdbm/cabin.h>

or in the same directory:

#include "depot.h"
#include "curia.h"
#include "cabin.h"

Similar issues can be found in the other /usr/include/qdbm/* include
files.
