Just for background information, Leptonica has a big hulking
API, something on the order of a thousand calls. Upstream
is constantly making tweaks around the periphery, often just
adding more stuff.

In retrospect, it was possibly a mistake for upstream to bump
the soname up to 3 in one of the releases. It is also very
hard for me to imagine any scenario where having multiple
versions of Leptonica installed at the same time makes sense.

I've been dragging my feet on this bug because I didn't see
any harm for users in the current situation. But I won't get in
the way of your energy. Tesseract is by far the dominant
application and you can see its dramatic influence on Leptonicas
popcon stats.
