I am not familiar with CMake, so I may be wrong here, but it looks like
the CMake build system does not create the shared library. So I can't
use it out-of-the-box. Note that the scons build system creates the
shared library, but it's not what you want anyways.

It would take me some time to figure out how to fix this, and I admit
that I have no strong inclination to dig into CMake documentation.
Ideally if you could provide me with a patch to the CMake stuff, I would
surely apply it (I can figure out how to adapt the Debian packaging).
The SONAME has to be libdouble-conversion.so.1.

Cheers,
