We in OpenBSD fully support SONAME itself. But since we always version
shared library file names as libfoo.so.X.Y, SONAME creates more
problems than solves (actually, it doesn't solve a one for us). So we
prefer to drop SONAME entirely, and do so consistently in our Ports
tree, which has full support for building CMake-based software.
Ah thanks, good to know.
Does that mean you've got no "-Wl,-soname," whatsoever when building
CMake based projects or that you let it produce unversioned SONAMEs with
e.g. "-Wl,-soname,libfoo.so" (instead of "-Wl,-soname,libfoo.so.X.Y")?
In case you drop "-Wl,-soname" entirely ... how do you work around the
issue of the linker using paths rather than names in NEEDED entries?
Or does the issue not exist on OpenBSD?
