Shared objects in sobjs:
Supreme Council
Supreme Council


See User information
Aleady there's programs that require different versions of the same shared object. Such as "libSDL.so" and "libSDL-1.2.so".

Does this mean that in time we'll have tons and tons of different versions of the same shared objects for different programs?

If so then it seems like a complete mess to me.

If something needs libSDL.so instead of libSDL-1.2.so the developer has messed up his system.

No. There will be different versions of the shared objects used by different programs, though. But that's only required if new versions of the shared objects are incompatible to the older versions, and for example having 5 versions of libSDL-1.2.so, libSDL-1.3.so, ... libSDL-1.6.so installed which are used by 100 programs is still much better than having libSDL installed 100 times (statically linked into the 100 programs).

Seems we could use a central place for all #?.so libs to make it easier for developers and users alike.
