I had no idea that Fedora had anything like that - I've seen it on
Solaris - I will have to add it to my "things that you needed to know
before you broke that" list. :-)
It's from debian actually, /bin/whatever is a symlink to
/etc/alternatives/whatever, which in turn a symlink to something else,
and it's symlinks all the way down. ;)
But yeah, that's the library I was thinking of.
The proper way of doing it is to make a libfoo-postgres and libfoo-mysql
RPMs and each would `update alternatives` in its postinst script and
it'll all magically "just work". Except when it doesn't.
