To remain binary compatible, it suffices to have the same major version, as programs are expected to link against the .so.<major> file. Which file this actually symlinks to is irrelevant. So in fact you start off using -version-info <major>:0:0 and then go on as in the libtool manual. > libtool makes this transition system dependent as I must compute the > correct version-info string for each operating system to have the correct > library versions generated out the other end.
