To run exiv2 from the bundle
----------------------------
$ cd <bundle>
$ bin/exiv2

To build samples/exiftool.cpp from the bundle
---------------------------------------------
$ g++ -std=gnu++98 samples/exifprint.cpp -L$PWD/lib -I$PWD/include -lexiv2 -o exifprint
$ env PATH="$PWD/bin:$PATH" ./exifprint

To install for use by all users
-------------------------------
$ for i in bin include lib share ; do cp -R $i/* /usr/local/$i ; done

To compile and link your own code using installed library and include files
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Method 1: Explicitly set include and linking options
$ cd <bundle>
$ g++ -std=gnu++98 samples/exifprint.cpp -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib -lexiv2 -o exifprint
$ export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
$ ./exifprint --version

Method 2: Use pkg-config to set include and linking options
$ cd <bundle>
$ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
$ g++ -std=gnu++98 samples/exifprint.cpp -o exifprint $(pkg-config exiv2 --libs --cflags)
$ ./exifprint

Method 3: Use the CMake support/consume files
See file: README.md Section: 2.6 "Consuming Exiv2 with CMake"
