just cause i want to doc it someplace I've found that in almost everycase this is how you can convert -release to -version-info

in other words ugly (libfoo-0.0.0.dylib, libfoo-0.0.0.0.dylib and libfoo-0.0.0.0.0.0.dylib)
to nice (libfoo.dylib, libfoo.0.dylib and libfoo.0.0.0.dylib)

if you see -release x.y.z replace it with -version-info (x+y):z:y

Ummm, I don't think you're supposed to do that...

The reason for -release is for projects that don't follow gnu's guidelines in incrementing version-info and such for maintaining backwards-compatibility.

Peter can probably expand on this (and maybe I'm wrong about this), but from what I understand from the libtool list, just changing it willy-nilly because it's "ugly" is probably not a good idea... :)
