A bit more info:  I ran the gen-debian-files.sh script, and it produced
the following files:

    libunity-scopes-1.0.2.shlibs
    libunity-scopes-qt0.2.0.shlibs

Neither of these match the binary package names (libunity-scopes1.0 and
libunity-scopes-qt0.2 respectively), which is probably why they are
being ignored.

This still leaves open the issue of how to manage the minimum version
requirement.  At the moment these files produce:

    libunity-scopes 1.0 libunity-scopes1.0 (>= 1.0)
    libunity-scopes-qt 0.2 libunity-scopes-qt0.2 (>= 0.2)

The first is wrong because there have been ABI additions since version
1.0.  The second looks weird because it doesn't look like it refers to
any released version -- that binary package has the same version
numbering as the rest of them, so I'd expect a 1.0.x version as minimum.

Title:
  Need to update micro version in shlibs file when symbols are added

Status in unity-scopes-api package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Currently, we are writing only major.minor into the shlibs file. But,
  if we add a new symbol to the public API and only increment the micro
  version, we really need to write the micro version as well.

  Unfortunately, that's a manual process, so we need to remember. With
  the next version of abigail, it might be possible to spit out some
  big-time warning or some such when new symbols are added to the public
  API. At least that would help to remind us.
