We do not speak about the lib from the compiler here, but about independend libs on top of it. You do only get different sonames for libs, if the build system really has code to detect the compiler version, which usually is not the case. So, for instance, a libzypp would keep the same soname, but becomes incompatible due to the two different compilers. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
