Ideally the user should #include okular/core/global.h instead. I think changing the interfaces #include to "../core/okularcore_export.h" is the cleaner solution here.

Of course the OkularConfig.cmake file could be changed to option 2, then it can be #include "core/okularcore_export.h" or we add include/okular/core to the INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES then #nclude okularcore_export.h still works.

Ha! :D Sure
