I can see you only renamed pcre2_set_depth_limit() to pcre2_set_recursion_limit(). Then instead of (or in addition to) the declaration in the header file: +/* Keep this old function name for backwards compatibility */ +#define pcre2_set_recursion_limit pcre2_set_depth_limit you could define the pcre2_set_recursion_limi() function the library as a wrapper on top of pcre2_set_depth_limit() (or use some linker magic or provide na alias). Then the library would preserve ABI and the SONAME could be preserved. -- Petr
