yes. I think it's fine. is there a problem?

You cannot load gtk3 and gtk4 in the same application, and
consequently, you cannot load libnma.so (gtk3) and libnma-gtk4
together.

libnma is a GUI library based on GTK. It seems not unreasonable that
the GTK version is part of the library name -- in particular, as there
might come GTK5 in the future.

These are really two different libraries (with very similar API and the
same underlying sources).
