# Upstream distributes this library without a version in the soname. They'd # like to keep it that way for compatibility with older UDFs (User-defined # libraries, a type of plugin libraries for Firebird that add custom functions # in SQL), which could not be recompiled by users (for example due to lost # sources) # # This causes no problems in Debian, because # - the library API/ABI is backwards compatible with the one from previous # versions (all the way to 1.0; both server-wise and UDF-wise) # - upstream also promises to keep the compatibility in the future # - the library will get installed even without .shlibs integration, because # any user wanting to use Firebird with his/her shiny UDF will install some # firebird server package, and they all depend on libib-util libib-util: shlib-without-versioned-soname usr/lib/*/libib_util.so libib_util.so # this is not a dev package libib-util: dev-pkg-without-shlib-symlink usr/lib/*/libib_util.so usr/lib/*/libib_util.so
