Oh, good question... I have not yet had that case. We would hit it when the
pre-release bumps a soname, right? So something like systemd pushing a
pre-release where libudev is bumped from libudev.so.1 to libudev.so.2...

At least for the packages that I care about here these cases should be
pretty rare... :-p
But that might be different for others.

That's the idea, yes.

Hmm, not sure. Depending on package (and impact of rebuild when required)
this may vary from over-complicating to required.

After all this has much greater impact than expected when we want to make it
complete and correctly.
