 No, it isn't.  The plptools package provides a shlibs file; there is a
 plptools-dev package containing .so symlinks for use by other software when
 linking to it; and there are other binary packages (built from the same
 source) which have a dependency on plptools as a result of these library
 dependencies.  Sorry, you don't get to claim this is internal; it's
 exposed in the packaging system, and you need to provide a proper upgrade
 path so that, at the very least, *future* ABI changes don't cause dependent
 packages to be installed against ABI-breaking versions of plptools.

Good point - I will split the library off into its own package.
