I was able to find some of the reasons for the previous packaging
decisions, such has how librubberband causes timing issues (in a drum
machine, this would be RC imho!); however, calling rubberband as an
application apparently does not produce this issue.  I think OSC support
would be really nice to have, but suspect it was disable because liblo
was buggy, and I stumbled upon what seems to be the fact that this is
still the case (https://github.com/hydrogen-music/hydrogen/issues/897).

Why weren't you building the shared lib before?  It looks like hydrogen
might have been statically linked?  That seems wrong to me, so I wonder
what the reason was ;-)

I'm guessing the files that would have gone into the -dev package were
deleted because long ago there was no need.  Do you know if they would
now be useful for something like plugins?

If you can share why these, and other decisions, were made I'd very much
appreciate it.  At this time core functionality, MIDI, and export of
some formats was confirmed to be good (#960539), but I'm trying to be
careful about disrupting more advanced functionality other users may
depend on.

Thanks!
Nicholas
