Shared objects (libraries) residing in %{_libdir} usually have names like
libfoo.so.X.Y.Z where X.Y.Z is their ABI version number. -devel subpackages
contain libfoo.so which is usually a link to libfoo.X.Y.Z and is used for
linking against libfoo (-lfoo in linker command line).

Judging by the above, your libdspam.so should in fact be named
libdspam.so.7.0.0.
