In that case, maybe you can install the shared library under /usr/lib/dicom or something (i.e., not in the general library search path in /usr/lib), and try to change the build system to use them. You would not ship a seperate libarary (or libdevel) package. That way, you do not have to worry about the external ABI/API of your package. Once somebody requests the external shipment of the shared library in order to use them with 3rd party applications, you can still revisit this problem.
