Lintian suggests the following command to determine correct name for a shared library package:

objdump -p /path/to/libfoo-bar.so.1.2.3 | sed -n 
-e's/^[[:space:]]*SONAME[[:space:]]*//p' | sed -e's/\([0-9]\)\.so\./\1-/; 
s/\.so\.//'

Could this code be included in Policy ยง8.1, perhaps as a footnote? Thanks.
That seems to be missing tr [[:upper:]] [[:lower:]].
Hmm, right. And it should replace underscores with dashes.

The actualy lintian code is:

foreach my $expected_name (@sonames) {
    $expected_name =~ s/([0-9])\.so\./$1-/;
    $expected_name =~ s/\.so(?:\.|\z)//;
    $expected_name =~ s/_/-/g;
    if ((lc($expected_name) eq $pkg)
        || (lc($expected_name) eq $base_pkg)) {
        $match_found = 1;
        last;
    }
}

This can be translated to the following sed command:

LC_ALL=C sed -r -e's/([0-9])\.so\./\1-/; s/\.so(\.|$)//; y/_/-/; s/(.*)/\L&/'
