Re: How to create symlinks for shared library with soname

[lijh8]

Hi Paul,

I just come across the ldconfig manual. It seems it prefers the chained links like the CMake does too.

```

ldconfig expects a certain pattern to how the symbolic links are set up, 

like this example, where the middle file (libfoo.so.1 here)  is  the SONAME for the library:

    libfoo.so -> libfoo.so.1 -> libfoo.so.1.12

```
