Thanks for the pointer and the following explanations. Now that I feel I *may*
have understood the numbering, I have a new proposal/question:
As we strive to keep our libs downward compatible inside a stable release
(i.e. the newer libs should be usable with lower versions of plugins and
wireshark?) we may want to add -version as well? How about naming the libs
for Wireshark <major>.<minor>.<release> something like
-release <major>.<minor> -version-info <release>:0:<release>?
Ciao

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
