[csw-maintainers] library package names and unusual SONAME

[Daniel Pocock]

I'm uncertain about this output from checkpkg - I want to call the
package CSWlibganglia0, and mgar has successfully built CSWlibganglia0,
but checkpkg wants me to call it CSWlibganglia3-1-7-0

I realise that the SONAME in the library should be fixed by the upstream
maintainer - however, to make a package of this version

a) should I implement some hack in my Makefile to work around this?

b) or should my Makefile patch the package contents to build a library
with a different SONAME?


Notice I already use

CHECKPKG_OVERRIDES_CSWlibganglia0 +=
shared-lib-pkgname-mismatch|file=opt/csw/li
b/libganglia-3.1.7.so.0.0.0|soname=libganglia-3.1.7.so.0|pkgname=CSWlibganglia0|
expected=CSWlibganglia3-1-7-0

and that doesn't seem to make the message go away

http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/gar/browser/csw/mgar/pkg/ganglia/trunk/Makefile

This is the message from checkpkg:
