Yes I do. But they still don't help on picking the correct package. And the sonames are not usually/always incremented for a minor bug fixes etc. At least not the part visible in the file name. For example: Program X uses libfoo, and libfoo had bug that this program triggers. It was fixed in libfoo 1.0.11, but the name of the library is still libfoo.so.1, even if the library itself has more specific version number. So if the program X package still announces requirement for libfoo.so.1, it doesn't say that this really needs >= 1.0.11 of the libfoo, -kimju _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
