[uClibc]sonames

[Michael Shmulevich]

I've been thinking about the problem, and come to a conclusion that 
SONAME might be different from libc.so.0 and stay libuClibc.so.0 as it 
was until several months ago, I still use this version.

As David (or was it Manuel?) said, there might be little in common 
between file name and its SONAME, as long as both compiler/linker and 
dynamic linker can find respective .so. Therefore during compilation we 
can create a libc.so as a softlink to libuClibc.so.0 and during 
installation, we will not need a libs.co at all, since all binaries will 
be built with dependancy on libuClibc.so.0 from the beginning.

How does that sound?
