It would btw be a good idea to talk to the collanda developers

an SNOAME is broken and will not work.

Well, fmodex is a counterexample to that ;-)
No SONAME, but at least the library name is changed on every release.
(libfmodex-4.28.so -> libfmodex-4.29.so)

It will work as plugin (i.e. when the file is loaded explicitely). A
shared library without SONAME won't work for a strict definition of work.
ldconfig will do the wrong thing, and dlopen won't notice the same library
loaded twice.


Ciao,
Michael.
