[SOLVED] Bluetooth development headers

I'm attempting to screw around with Bluetooth on an Arch-running machine.  I've installed bluez and bluez-util.  The kernel has the relevant bluetooth modules running. I'm all set for some coding fun...

Except there aren't any bluetooth header files on this machine.  Sample C code I see shows lines like #include <bluetooth/bluetooth.h> or #include <btinclude.h> or similar.   Using find, I find nothing in /usr/include with a name including "blue" or even just "bt" (ignoring some obvious irrelevant files). 

Is there some other Arch package that provides the bluetooth headers?

Re: [SOLVED] Bluetooth development headers

I do not have a /usr/include/bluetooth directory.
Which Arch package provides it and its contents?

I think you did not get down to the last three lines of my post
