Description
Please consider [1] maintaining a proper soversion when updating the library.
E.g. d2885be081a9472ca6f538cbd45e855e208cd0c6 added new API but didn't update the version info before the release.
On a related note, it probably would have been a good idea to start with soversion 0:0:0 for the first release. But that can't be changed anymore obviously.
