Since the SONAMEs are different, you probably can just ship it as is, without renaming the libraries. Only thing that would be needed is the Conflicts between the -dev package and the pgplot equivalent. Upstream will need to be aware that SONAME 5 is for the non-free version and they should not use it until they are binary-compatible with it. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
