When I read this, I still have a question. So we install to separate dirs, then stow creates symlinks to combine the installed files in one dir again? But then we need to pass only one LD_LIBRARY_PATH and one PKG_CONFIG_PATH with the symlinks? So how then does it make us find errors like forgotten dep dirs? Or otherwise, why the symlinks?

https://gerrit.osmocom.org/#/c/2691/3/scripts/osmo-build-dep.sh
File scripts/osmo-build-dep.sh:

Line 54: mkdir -p "$inst/stow"
I still don't understand why a separate 'stow' subdir is needed. $inst is an empty directory intended for storing installation files. Does stow put things in "$STOW_DIR/.." or why the extra path element?
