I also symlink the plugin to /usr/lib/iceweasel/plugins. Your question is a bit vague, and I suspect my answer is a bit vague also.

I was saying that perhaps Sun could have made the SDK work with future versions of that library.

Oh, ok. When my SDK breaks from linking libraries, i'll follow your advice. (==timothy==)

The world isn't perfect, and sometimes mistakes were made and need to be corrected. When the soname (the bit at the end of the library filename) is changed, that indicates that compatibility has been broken for one reason or another. You may not notice it most of the time, as the change may be in a rarely-used part of the library, but if anything ever does call the thing that changed then it'll most likely crash immediately. > Or perhaps we could ask Sun to simply build the SDK with forward > compatibility in mind ? :-) It's the standard C++ library, not Sun ... > I just looked at the libraries in my /usr/lib, and it would appear > that many of them are linked to other libraries. That's different. Those are probably either links from /usr/lib/libfoo.so to /usr/lib/libfoo.so.1 (which are for use when compiling other software dependent on those libraries, not when running it) or links to micro-versions of the libraries where the library interface hasn't changed. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This is probably a stupid question, but shouldn't libraries be built with backwards compatibility in mind? Or perhaps we could ask Sun to simply build the SDK with forward compatibility in mind ? :-) Since you are a Debian developer, i follow your instructions the next time around. But, being that i'm lazy, for now i will not try to fix something that isn't broken. I just looked at the libraries in my /usr/lib, and it would appear that many of them are linked to other libraries. Since i didn't link most of these myself, i assume this was done by other software installations. Perhaps i am missing the point??? (==timothy==)

I recommend not doing this when you can find the real library with the correct soname anywhere at all. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
