I'm a little worried about why we're having to create these links when
other software seems able to expect these things by default. Is this
some standard packaging most distros do? I'm a little worried we're
creating an ABI here which doesn't exist...

Put another way, why doesn't upstream create this link if its expected
to work?

Cheers,

Richard
