Right, so the soname is "libserf-1.so.1".

If the soname were "libserf-1.so" or "libserf.so.1", the package name would
be CSWlibserf1, without the dash. The syntax for package names is
CSW<name><number>(-<number>)+. If there is more than one number, all
numbers are listed separated by dashes. Here's a list of examples:

You wrote that the new libserf has a new soname, what was the old soname?
