I have another question creeping up my spine: How is the library versioning to be done? As far as I have understood the libtool manual, it offers two options: Either to set a '-version-info', or to use '-release'. It seems to me that -version-info is more flexible, but I don't quite understand how this works together with the shlib-symlinking. This is done by '-release' if I understood correctly, but libtool manual states that you can't use both flags together. I then took a look into the libsigc++ package, and there they *are* used together (libsigc++ is out of date BTW: upstream is 1.0.0, debian is 0.8.6). I am slightly confused about this... Any hints?
