I tried building both packages (I have draft packaging that I might
commit to team repositories later). 

It looks like separation of bfgminer-3.0.1 and libblkmaker-3.0.0 is
still incomplete. For instance libblkmaker do not install
"blkmaker_jansson.h" that is needed by bfgminer. The latter still
tries to link with local copy of libblkmaker (using rpath) and do not
attempt to discover libblkmaker using pkg-config.

Luke, would you be able to fix that?

Using quick and dirty fixes for above problems I was able to build
both packages so now I can start bfgminer...
