    Once again, folks, *please* announce your soname bumps, and co-ordinate

Is it time to update the packaging guidelines to enforce setting a "%global sover <X>" and using it in %files?

If nothing else it should at least be documented as a best practice.

I would be very opposed to this.

Even though some folks want rawhide to appear a release, rawhide is not a release. So SONAME breakages are expected to happen in rawhide and maintainers supposed to be reacted upon.
