Hi,

As noted in PR pkg/18606, suse_x11 does not create symlinks for all
libraries in the way some packages would expect:  it creates symlinks
from foo.so.major to foo.so.major.minor, but not from foo.so to
foo.so.major.

The attached patch contains a hackish approach to fixing this situation
-- I believe, however, that the real solution would be to fix rpm2pkg to
do so, but I'm not sure in how far this is feasable.

Thoughts?
