skarcha/tests — Issue #7: 8 - Soname for 0.6.0 
Author: skarcha

Reported by Marcus Rueckert <darix@web.de>:

the soname of the 0.6.0 snapshots should get a soversion bump as they
still provide libcherokee-*.so.0. but running 0.5.5 with the 0.6.0 libs
just leads to segfaults. that said 0.6.0 should be libcherokee-*.so.1.
with older 0.6.0 snapshots it just failed on loading the config file.

i doubt someone wants to preserve the backwards compatibility here.
is it even possible given the changed config file format?

this is cherokee 0.5.5 and the libs from 0.6.0.r863. the problem is that
rpm normally uses the soname for library dependencies. atm i have a hack
in the spec file to explicitely require the package version. i would
like to return to a clean package. :)
