To facilitate this, the shared library name, include directory, and -pkg-config file are suffixed with the major version number of the library. - -For example, if this library was named "foo" and at version 1.x.y: - -/usr/include/foo-1/foo/foo.h -/usr/lib/foo-1.so.1.x.y -/usr/lib/pkgconfig/foo-1.pc - -Dependencies check for pkg-config name "foo-1" and will build -against a compatible version 1, regardless any other installed versions. - -*** IMPORTANT GUIDELINES FOR PACKAGERS *** - -Packages should follow the same conventions as above, i.e. include the major -version (and only the major version) in the name of the package. Continuing the -example above, the package(s) would be named foo-1 and foo-1-dev. This way, -if/when version 2 comes out, it may be installed at the same time as version 1 -without breaking anything. - -Please do not create packages of this library that do not follow these -guidelines, you will break things and cause unnecessary headaches. Please do -not use any number as a suffix other than the actual major version number of the -upstream source package. - -Because program and documentation names are not versioned, these should be -included in separate packages which may replace previous versions, since -there is little use in having parallel installations of them.
