Hello, how is version management of shared ELF libraries done? Is it true, that there must be exactly one digit behind the .so. (like libfoo.so.1)? Then how does the runtime linker distinct between compatible/uncompatible library API changes? Chapter 20.3 of The Handbook describes this for aout-libs (pretty good old major/minor numbering for (in)compatible API changes). I couldn't find a man page for the runtime linker, too. Although there seems to exist a japanese one: ./ja/man1/rtld.1.gz There is a reference to (a nonexistant) ld.so(1) in ldd(1). Please CC to me, since I'm not on this list.
