libvici is mostly intended for internal use since the davici library [1]
was created, due to all the advantages it provides (less restrictive
license, independent of any strongSwan libraries, asynchronous API).
I'd say --with-dev-headers shouldn't be used in general at all, in
particular not for distro packages, because we don't provide a stable
API for our libraries.

Tobias
