Which installs how it is installed by "make install" by upstream, and
thus probably what the library (and users of that library - LibreOffice) expects.

See also libnumbertext.pc:

prefix=/usr
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
includedir=${prefix}/include
datarootdir=${prefix}/share
datadir=${datarootdir}
pkgdatadir=${datarootdir}/libnumbertext

Name: libnumbertext
Description: Library implementing Soros based Number to Number Name
conversion
Version: 1.0.3
Requires:
Libs: -L${libdir} -lnumbertext-1.0
Cflags: -I${includedir}/libnumbertext/

I guess we should fix *this*.
