Bitbake LibSocketCAN

I am trying to build libsocketcan into my image. To add libsocketcan In my main application recipe I added IMAGE_INSTALL_append += " libsocketcan ". When debugging my application with Eclipse this works perfectly. When I attempt to bitbake my application I am told

fatal error: libsocketcan.h: No such file or directory

I am not sure where I am missing my dependency. Makefile.am

AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = foreign subdir-objects

bin_PROGRAMS = MAIN_Application

MAIN_Application_LDADD = -lsocketcan -lpthread

AM_CPPFLAGS = \
-I$(srcdir)/include \
-I$(srcdir)/include/utilities \
-I$(srcdir)/include/comms

MAIN_Application_SOURCES = \
src/main.c \
src/scheduler.c \
src/utilities/time_conversions.c \
src/utilities/ring_buffer.c \
src/utilities/logger.c \
src/comms/can.c

I believe this is the only file that would make a difference. Has anyone else ever faced this? What else do I need to do to allow my bitbake to find the include?

libsocketcan provides these packages:

Adding DEPENDS += "libsocketcan" will cause all those files to be populated into your custom layer's working directory.

NOTE Your recipe seems to do not install your MAIN_Application output binary file. So your recipe should look like:

LICENSE = "MIT"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://${COMMON_LICENSE_DIR}/MIT;md5=0835ade698e0bcf8506ecda2f7b4f302"

SRC_URI = "\
    file://MAIN_Application \
        file://services \   
    "

inherit autotools systemd

S = "${WORKDIR}/MAIN_Application"

DEPENDS += "libsocketcan"

SYSTEMD_SERVICE_${PN} = "MAINapplication.service"

do_install_append () {
    install -d ${D}${systemd_system_unitdir}
    install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/services/MAINapplication.service ${D}${systemd_system_unitdir}
    sed -i -e 's,@BINDIR@,${bindir},g' ${D}${systemd_system_unitdir}/MAINapplication.service
    install -m 0644 ${S}/MAIN_Application ${D}${bindir}
}

Just make sure that MAIN_Application is the right binary name.
