Upgrading a project to libtool and maintaining old library version

2003-02-17 Thread Albert Chin
A project wishes to upgrade to use libtool to build shared libraries but maintain compatibility with the old library versioning scheme. Is -version-info and -release *it* for how to tell libtool to handle library versions? Old (on Redhat Linux): libfontconfig.so -> libfontconfig.so.1 libfontco
