Hi. (A special hello to Junichi who is CCed because of his libpkg-guide.) I'm having a package that will probably use the age feature of release numbering. (I.e. libfoo.a.b.1 to indicate that programs linked against libfoo.a and libfoo.(a-1) can use it as documented in the libtool docs.) I've searched the docs (including libpkg guide) for hints what to do in terms of packaging. Should I just ignore the binary compatibility or should I add a "Provides: libfoo(a-1)"? (a-1) being the result of calculating the predecessor of a. Advice is appreciated, as are examples in the archive.
TIA Thomas
