[Bug 906147] LibreOffice Base / Mariadb not working after OpenSuse 13.2 installation

http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=906147 --- Comment #5 from David Sterba --- Linking against .so is wrong if the library properly uses versioning (major.minor.rev). The name should match the SONAME, eg. libmysqlclient.so.18 . The application should know the minimal major version that contains all the symbols used. Higher major number may mean that the library is backward compatible but also may not. This could lead to problems later, the configure-time check should be able to catch this early. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
