The only appreciable difference I see is aesthetics, and ease of use if you already use libtool. A SONAME libfoo-x.y.z.so allows moving to SONAME libfoo.so.0 once the ABI is deemed stable. The alternative would be to have SONAME libfoo.so.LargeNumber as the first stable ABI release. And libtool has a flag/option/command/something so that the autotools project version is automatically used as the soname version, instead of manually bumping the version on each release. > > In any case, I'll keep these recommendations in mind for all my > projects (which for some reason always seem to be libraries.. god... > :P), thanks.
