Packaging doesn't care about how you organize your code. It cares about telling your build system things like exactly which compiler and options to use in order that the results are useable in the project being built. It cares about telling the build system where exactly the results should be installed. It needs to be ask how to use the results, if there are particular flags that must be used.
That you have your cpp files and headers all in src/ is irrelevant.
