> Unversioned so-files
> --------------------
> mariadb-connector-python: 
> /usr/lib64/python3.15/site-packages/mariadb/_mariadb.cpython-315-x86_64-linux-gnu.so

This .so is unversioned because it is a Python C-extension loaded at runtime,
and is not meant to be linked against by other system binaries and/or users. 

According to Fedora packaging guidelines, unversioned so-files are acceptable
under the following conditions:
1. The DSO MUST NOT be visible to the dynamic linker - the .so is not visible
in the ldconfig -p output.
2. DSO must be located in a private directory (not directly in /usr/lib64/) -
the .so is installed within the Python site-packages/ subdirectory.
3. DSO must not be linked against and is loaded at runtime by the implementing
application - it is loaded solely at runtime by Python via import.

Because these conditions are met, the unversioned DSO does not need to be
placed in -devel package.
