Should work actually. Nexenta provides different versions of the same
library. i.e.  for instance libneon:

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 17 Oct 22 23:14 /usr/lib/libneon.so.23 -> 
libneon.so.23.0.9
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 17 Sep 24 10:57 /usr/lib/libneon.so.24 -> 
libneon.so.24.0.7

the same true for libgnome, libjpeg and others. If some of the libraries
missing, we will package it and package will co-exists with existing
packages, i.e. for instance neon:

$ dpkg -s libneon23 libneon24 | grep ^Package:
Package: libneon23
Package: libneon24
