>Description:
Programs that have been compiled against the SDL2-2.0.0 package won't work with the 2.0.1 package because the library name changed from libSDL2-2.0.so.0 to libSDL2-2.0.so.1. I think upstream's intent is that programs keep working when there are only minor updates to the SDL library.

Other OSs use libSDL2-2.0.so.0 and libSDL2-2.0.so.0.1.0 for SDL2-2.0.1, keeping compatibility with apps linked against 2.0.0.

 - http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/rpminfo?rpmID=4545741

Something weird seems to be going on when building on FreeBSD. I will try to investigate further.
>How-To-Repeat:
- build some application against SDL2-2.0.0
- upgrade SDL to 2.0.1
- application stops working as it can't find libSDL2-2.0.so.0.
