I just got a bug report for the official Fedora version of KiCAD stating that 
ngspice was not found.  An attempt to perform a simulation results in KiCAD 
crashing.

The Fedora KiCAD package specifies libngspice.so.0.0.0, but the library has now 
bumped to libngspice.so.0.0.1.  I would have expected that to be fine, because 
the new library should be compatible.  But apparently, the loader is looking 
for an exact match, and refuses to use the newer library.

For now, I'm rebuilding the official package to match the new ngspice library, 
but I'm wondering if there is a way to improve this situation, such that KiCAD 
links with libngspice.0 rather than insisting on an exact match of the minor 
number.
