FWIW, the convention for ppa uploads is to append ~ppaX to the new
version number.

supposed to be used by consumers of libtraceevent

Ah, okay. This was causing me a lot of confusion, since you are kind of
mis-using the LIBTRACEEVENT_STATIC variable. The point remains either
way that you should simply use -ltraceevent (this is what any real
consumer will do) instead of grepping `dpkg -L`. If you want to keep
using LIBTRACEEVENT_STATIC for this purpose, please add a comment
explaining that we are knowingly hijacking this variable to instead link
against the shared library. Otherwise, it will continue to be confusing.
