For a distro build, the plugin should go into the same directory as the
other geoservices plugins - and the make install in the googlemaps
directory should in theory take care of that. And than "all it takes" is
to include them in the .deb

So I'm not /quite/ sure what you are asking (but I haven't focused
on the Ubuntu packaging in a while - I had failed to build them at
all until Lubomir fixed that for Ubuntu)
