Hi,

libdrm-2.3.0 (release) installs
        libdrm.so.2 -> libdrm.so.2.3.0
libdrm-2.3.1 (release) installs
        libdrm.so.2 -> libdrm.so.2.3.1
libdrm-2.4.0 (release), libdrm-2.4.1 (release), and libdrm-2.4.2 (git) install
        libdrm.so.2 -> libdrm.so.2.3.0

thus libdrm-2.3.0 => libdrm-2.3.1 => libdrm-2.4.x goes first forward and
then backward in shared library version numbers.

That is really bad. Suppose you install libdrm-2.4.x but keep
libdrm.so.2.3.1 from libdrm-2.3.1. Then ldconfig will change the symlink
back to
        libdrm.so.2 -> libdrm.so.2.3.1
and exectuables will use that older library. Certainly not what anyone wants.

Please fix the shared library version in libdrm-2.4.2 git and create a
libdrm-2.4.2 release tarball as soon as possible.
