[Qbs] Why was protobuf.outputDir removed

[Kai Dohmen]

Hello,

the subject states my Question.
Normally I create a static library from proto files. This static library
can be linked into different applications. This really comes in handy when
using conan.
But since protobuf.outputDir was removed I cannot set the Exported
includePaths dir properly.
Furthermore when installing the generated header files I cannot use the
Groups property installSourceBase to match the installed directory
structure to the proto files ones.

What is the right way of using proto files as a library? Should they get
compiled or should they append to the depending products source files?

Thanks,
Kai
