Sorry, but there seems to be some misunderstanding. As this library obviously has no proper soname, the right fix is to suffix the library with -<version>.

This does not help. When a project requires liblpsolve it still cannot use it (as abi changes are not dealt with). So you could as well remove the .so file an integrate liblpsolve statically.
