The generated file names look strange: Now: tobi@isildor:~/workspace/deb/packages/log4cxx/upstream/log4cxx/debian/tmp/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu$ ls -la liblog4cxx* lrwxrwxrwx 1 tobi tobi 20 Dec 31 08:51 liblog4cxx.so -> liblog4cxx.so.15.0.0 -rw-r--r-- 1 tobi tobi 22632496 Dec 31 08:50 liblog4cxx.so.1.0.0.0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 tobi tobi 21 Dec 31 08:51 liblog4cxx.so.15.0.0 -> liblog4cxx.so.1.0.0.0 I'd expect the (actually) library be liblog4cxx.so.15.0.0 and symlinks pointing to it: liblog4cxx.so --> liblog4cxx.so.15 --> liblog4cxx.so.15.0.0 (linker name) --> (soname) --> (real name) (References: https://tldp.org/HOWTO/Program-Library-HOWTO/shared-libraries.html, https://man7.org/conf/lca2006/shared_libraries/slide5b.html and following slides) before it was like this, which matches what I see on other libraries and what I would expect: tobi@isildor:~/workspace/deb/packages/log4cxx/log4cxx/debian/tmp/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu$ ls -la liblog4cxx* total 22780 lrwxrwxrwx 1 tobi tobi 16 Dec 31 08:55 liblog4cxx.so -> liblog4cxx.so.13 lrwxrwxrwx 1 tobi tobi 20 Dec 31 08:55 liblog4cxx.so.13 -> liblog4cxx.so.13.0.0 -rw-r--r-- 1 tobi tobi 23308784 Dec 31 08:54 liblog4cxx.so.13.0.0 ) (If you want to encode the project version into the name, it would be more liblog4cxx-1.0.0.so, liblog4cxx-1.0.0.so.15 and sliblog4cxx-1.0.0.so.15.0.0 , but that's breaking the concept of soanmes alltogether, as for the linker/loader liblog4cxx-1.0.0.so.15 and liblog4cxx-1.0.1.so.15 would be different, unrelated libraries) > -Robert Middletona -- tobi
