Hi,
I'm preparing Debian packages of OpenInventor.
Debian has pretty strict requirements on its packages, one of which is
that a shared library should have a SONAME that includes a version
number. The current sources do not specify a SONAME for the
libraries, however.
I have been handed patches to the open inventor makefiles that
incorporate a soname when building the shared libs Inventor and
InventorXt. My question is: what version would be appropriate to use?
Looking at our IRIX 6.5 machine, I see the SONAME used is
"libInventor.so.3". Would it be okay to use the same for the
OpenInventor 2.1.5-7 sources? I want to avoid the mess that would
ensue should SGI later release it with a lower SONAME version.
Help!
