I have a problem with the upstream. It seems they want the package in Debian very much, however they don't want to hear about versioned SONAMES, and asked me not to make such a patch. Since the project is GPL nothing forbids me from creating such a patch but that would be against upstream's wishes. Also not having versioned sonames breaks dh_makeshlibs, dh_shlibdeps.
