2.6.0 was the first version:

If you installed from a package then bro_dist should be blank, you don't
actually have the source tree. However, you should have the cmake_dir. It
looks like there is an issue with the binary packages missing that directory:

```
root@395583468d09:~# bro-config --cmake_dir
/opt/bro/share/bro/cmake
root@395583468d09:~# ls /opt/bro/share/bro/cmake
ls: cannot access '/opt/bro/share/bro/cmake': No such file or directory
```

which is why your build is failing with 

```
include could not find load file:
BroPlugin
```

So, it Jan is able to fix the kernel headers issue for debian, but it looks
like the binary packages are missing some files that should be present that
make it impossible to currently build plugins against them :-(

In any case, none of this is a problem with bro-pkg.
