The version doesn't have to be major.minor.micro, though. The dependency
generator only needs to get the version of the package that provides the
.so, and use that version. As long as changes within a so version are
always backward compatible, and the so version is bumped when breaking
changes are made (which are already constraints on the existing system),
then the proposed solution is reliable. It's sometimes too strict -- it
might require 1.4.3 when 1.4.0 is compatible -- but it's reliable.
OK, it sounds like something worth doing.
OK. For discussion, I opened
https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/pull/2372
I tested it by rebuilding libsoup3 in a mock build root that included a
version of rpm with (basically) that patch, and then installing the
resulting package. It looks like it functions correctly, so this seems
like a sensible place to start.
$ podman run --rm -it fedora:37
[root@ae5c590fa03a /]# rpm -qp --requires
/var/tmp/libsoup3-3.2.2-3.fc37.x86_64.rpm
(libnghttp2.so.14()(64bit) with libnghttp2 >= 1.51.0)
...
[root@ae5c590fa03a /]# dnf install
/var/tmp/libsoup3-3.2.2-3.fc37.x86_64.rpm
