This always ensures forward and backward compatibility at the cost of dead libfoo<major> packages lying around. But unused libfoo<major> packages can be auto-cleaned should that be the only issue against them. And the management overhead can also be nicely reduced. If there is interest to look into that route I can elaborate more on this. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
