My apologies, of course we are aiming to package the unversioned symbolic
links to the "real" libraries to *-devel package. I thought it was clear

Why should we hack the soversion ? There are no changes to the soname or
ABI compatibility coming, we want to just package the unversioned symbolic
links to the "real" libraries to *-devel package.
