Hi Graham, The SONAME in 0.2.11-2 is libc4core.so.0, as Gabriel confirmed by readelf on the installed package on unstable.
The three relevant names are all consistent: Versioned filename: libc4core.so.0.2.11 (file on disk) SONAME symlink: libc4core.so.0 -> libc4core.so.0.2.11 Binary package: libc4core0 (soversion = 0) The SONAME has not changed to libc4core.so.0.2.11. That is the versioned filename on disk, not the ELF SONAME. The patch in 0.2.11-2 correctly set SOVERSION to the major version only, so the SONAME is now stable at libc4core.so.0 and the package name libc4core0 matches it exactly, satisfying Policy 8.1. Unless there is further comment or new evidence to the contrary, this bug should be closed. Regards, Fukui
