I'd be very happy to do that, but I'd like to know : is this the scheme Red
Hat is going to be moving to ? Soname in the package name and a
Provides : shared-library-package

I also think it is a great solution, which adresses correctly all the major
issues raised here. I'd be very happy to see it become a packaging policy.
Thanks
Aurélien
