We can trigger all dependent packages to be re-built, right? Are there
examples I can look at for the specifics? If it is acceptable to have
them broken for a while until things are rebuilt, we can settle on
that. If we even can trigger the .so.4 symlink being deleted after the
rebuilds, it could be a clean affair with minimal breakage. Downside is
that this has limited testing.

How much of a no-go is an upgrade that replaces the .so.4 with an so.3
and just tells users to rebuild things? Increment the revision of the
dependent packages as trigger to rebuild on update?


Alrighty then,

Thomas
