The so version number for the package is still 1; so the packages containing the binary shared libraries are libuuid1 and libblkid1. What gets confusing is that version numbers for libblkid-dev, libuuid-dev, libblkid1, and libuuid1 will be 2.16.x, not because of any soversion number, but because that's the version number of util-linux-ng. - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe util-linux-ng" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
