gnome-desktop3 was updated a week ago to 3.27.90, which bumped ABI

was even noticed by the maintainer, because once again:
%{_libdir}/lib*.so.*
I have rebuilt my affected package.
The wildcard in the files list is particularly dangerous because GNOME
packages are updated by a script; humans only look when there are build
failures. And unlike most other GNOME libraries, gnome-desktop does not
pretend to have a stable API.
I've junt changed it to:
%{_libdir}/libgnome-desktop-3.so.17*
Belatedly, I realize that will break if the soname is ever bumped to
170. What is considered the best practice for this?
