Downstream .so versioning

[Jan Staněk]

Hi,

What should one do if the SW he is trying to package produce only
unversioned *.so files? I'm currently trying to package LMDB [1] as
possible alternative for BerkeleyDB in Fedora, and the hand-written
makefile produce only liblmdb.so.

I'm trying to persuade the upstream to change it and start to do it
properly, however if that fails, what can I do with it on my end?

Thanks for answer,
Jan
