Does the -dev package need the ABI number in the name?
Is it expected that a user can install multiple versions of the headers
concurrently,
libmusicbrainz4-dev -> /usr/include/musicbrainz4/*.h
libmusicbrainz5-dev -> /usr/include/musicbrainz5/*.h ?
or should we just have
libmusicbrainz-dev -> /usr/include/musicbrainz/*.h ?
Given that the ABI number will probably be bumped up to 5 anyway,
ABI number = 5
SONAME = libmusicbrainz.so.5
Package version = 4.1.x or 5.0.x
=> Package name = libmusicbrainz5 and libmusicbrainz5-dev
and filenames:
libmusicbrainz5_4.1.0-1_amd64.deb
libmusicbrainz5-dev_4.1.0-1_amd64.deb
(as described in my previous email on 1 May)
