The problem is that if upstream gets "real" later and uses proper versioning that may clash with our propped-on versioning scheme. This could be prevented by using sonames that are intentionally different (e.g. libijt-x.so.0 instead of libijt.so.0) The other problem with shared libs in the experimental stage is that they have to raise their major version number pretty often, generating a stream of libijtN packages, each of which has to be processed twice by ftpmasters (adding and later removing it). -- Robbe
