Shared library packages should be named after the library SONAME, which
generally includes a version (as it does here).  See:

Confused about libnuma1 naming

2024-05-16 Thread J.J. Martzki
Package 'libnuma1' is built from numactl, and there seems no 'libnuma'
exists. Why does it named as 'libnuma1' rather than 'libnuma'?

J.J. Martzki,
Best wishes.
