Change libavcodec.v to
LIBAVCODEC_58 {
global:
av_foo;
av_bar;
av_whatever_else_there_is;...
local:
*;
};
LIBAVCODEC_58.91 {
global:
avpriv_mpeg4audio_get_config2;
} LIBAVCODEC_58;
LIBAVCODEC_58.123 { /* future example */
global:
avblahblah;
} LIBAVCODEC_58.91;
Repeat likewise for other .v files. The file is no longer a template. The
automatic substitution of "_MAJOR" by the build system needs to cease. Version
numbers in the file are supposed to be fixed (among the set of all .so files
that share a SONAME).
