Indeed it should. The reverse is right. Letting pass that item 
without discussing it wouldn't be right. This is not a hard
blocker, indeed. 

It is much too late to change it, indeed, if it has to be
changed it should be changed right after fedora 7 is released.
Also it could be decided not to change it, but use the upstream
soname versionning if there is a new soname.

Still this issue is not clear to me. Do you have an idea about
what would be best (use libbz2.so.1 as soname or libbz2.so.1.0)?
It seems right to me not to change the soname, but this issue
should be settled down now such that it is easy to do the
right thing when the soname is changed upstream, and a comment 
should be added in the spec to explain everything and give 
guidance for the future.
