I've fixed the package in a way so-name bumps can be detected easily. 
If bootstrapping for such a bump (the next one) is needed one can do
that now by simply editing some lines of the spec-file.

During that fix, I've rebuilt systemd and the other consumers of
qrencode against the new so-name.

Cheers
