Hello,

I'm a bit confused about the library versioning scheme of the
owfs-libs.

Commonly a shared library foo hast the name “libfoo.so.M.I.P” where M
is the major number, I the minor number and P the patch-level. As long
as M does not change binary compatibility is given. This allows
applications to use a more recent binary compatible version than the
one it was linked again.

The owfs libs have names like “libfoo-2.7.so.17.0.0”. Does this comply
with the common scheme? Is 17 the API-Version or a patch-level?

        MfG
        bmg
