That's definitely true; as i said i tried to sort out things ahead of time,
and adding the ld.so.conf entry was the workaround, because unexpectedly
the tools and demos were linked directly to the wrapper library.

I regret if it is not acceptable; i will update the package moving the library
in _libdir (well just removing it from the old subdir as you found out its a
duplicate now), and renaming it with major version, asap.

Thanks for the hints
