Sounds good to me!

I am not an expert in soname handling, though.  I think the common 
thinking is that we should not as distro "invent" SONAME but leave that 
yo upstream, because ideally it should be identical across distros.  But 
concretely for v8 I guess that is highly unlikely to happen - and we 
should deal with it when it does.

You might wanna consult d-devel@l.d.o - as you know my judgement have 
been horribly wrong in the past :-)
