In OFED 1.3rc2 we noticed that libosmcomp's version had changed from 1
to 2.

 

Unfortunately this has caused forward compatibility problems for
existing applications which were compiled against OFED 1.2.5.1.  It
would be preferred if when such upgrades occur, both the .1 and .2
version of the library are provided such that existing applications do
not need to be recompiled nor reinstalled.  Alternatively limiting the
necessity for such library version changes (never break old interfaces)
would be preferred.

 

For future OFED releases I would like to request that a libosmcomp.so.1
version of the library also be included.

 

I realize that this issue is a bit dated (pre GA of 1.3) but I am
bringing it up in hopes of avoiding similar issues in the future.
