No application should ever dlopen the non-versioned .so at run-time. If it does, it needs to be patched. An application is built for a specific API/ABI and must not expect an arbitrary .so to be the right one. > DHJ> W: opencryptoki devel-file-in-non-devel-package > DHJ> /usr/lib/libopencryptoki.so Also note that ldconfig creates a symbolic link from *.so to the most recent versioned *.so.X, which would break such an application badly when multiple versions are installed. -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
