Hello,
you're right, there's a mistake in the packaging. The symlink should not
point to the backend versioned lib but to the generic one. Instead of:
# cd /etc/alternatives
# ls -lgh libbaccats*
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root 38 Jun 6 18:41 libbaccats-5.2.7.so -> /usr/lib64/
libbaccats-sqlite3-5.2.7.so
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root 38 Jun 6 18:41 libbaccats.so -> /usr/lib64/
libbaccats-sqlite3-5.2.7.so
Should be:
# ls -lgh libbaccats*
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root 32 Jun 6 18:57 libbaccats.so ->
/usr/lib64/libbaccats-sqlite3.so
This way, when you update, instead of this:
# alternatives --config libbaccats.so
There are 6 programs which provide 'libbaccats.so'.
Selection Command
-----------------------------------------------
1 /usr/lib64/libbaccats-mysql-5.2.6.so
+ 2 /usr/lib64/libbaccats-sqlite3-5.2.6.so
* 3 /usr/lib64/libbaccats-postgresql-5.2.6.so
4 /usr/lib64/libbaccats-mysql-5.2.7.so
5 /usr/lib64/libbaccats-sqlite3-5.2.7.so
6 /usr/lib64/libbaccats-postgresql-5.2.7.so
Enter to keep the current selection[+], or type selection number:
You get the correct symlink pointing to the unversioned library whose name
doesn't change:
# alternatives --config libbaccats.so
There are 3 programs which provide 'libbaccats.so'.
Selection Command
-----------------------------------------------
1 /usr/lib64/libbaccats-mysql.so
+ 2 /usr/lib64/libbaccats-sqlite3.so
* 3 /usr/lib64/libbaccats-postgresql.so
Enter to keep the current selection[+], or type selection number:
I will push an update to the repository and send an update here.
Thanks,
--Simone
