Debian GNU/Linux definitely does not require versioning.

I think I was wrong in my original message and Libtool does always add the
SONAME, just not with a version.  I just checked one of my packages in
Debian (webauth, specifically libapache2-mod-webauth), and the modules
that it builds do actually have an SONAME.  However, dpkg-shlibdeps
doesn't care.  So maybe this is a problem in that tool where it should be
suppressing that error for your package as well?

You can see the build logs at:
