------- Additional Comments From j.w.r.degoede@hhs.nl 2006-05-01 06:01 EST ------- Great that you've almost all rpmlint errors and warnings fixed. About the last one:
Hmm,
With normal dyn linked libs the lniker will search for the -soname so xxx.so.0 and the plain .so symlink is only used during compile to find the real .so.x file. What apps are using dlopen, the included ones? Couldn't you fix them to use dlopen .so.0 ?
The .so symlink really belongs in the -devel package. We could make an exception but thats rather ugly. For example there apps that ldopen libGL.so, but libGL.so still is in the -devel package and the apps are supposed to open libGL.so.1 The whole idea behind versioned .so is that an open will open the versioned lib so that if an ABI change happens ther app will keep working as long as the old version is not uninstalled.
