Hello! I have a problem with the php3 package. There is the main package which contains a loadable module for apache called mod_php3.so. There are some additional packages containing loadable modules for php, like pgsql.so. The current php3-pgsql, which contains pgsql.so depends on php3 with no version information. It should probably depend on the exact upstream version (like 3.0b6) of php3. Could someone tell me how to achieve this without editing the Depends fields of all packages in the control file with each upstream release?
Another question which could be related to the previous one: can I make an shlibs file which refer to a shared object without a soname version number? If there was a way to do this, I could just modify the shlibs file with each upstream version, and let dpkg-shlibdeps do the rest (I'd still need advice how to make the depends on the upstream version, without the debian version). I dont think it would be a good solution to add a version number to the object, since this is not a real library after all, just a shared object which should be loaded with dl(), although I had to link pgsql.so against it to have it working.
