gtk modules need not soname version. #517

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
# qlist gnome-globalmenu
/usr/lib64/gtk-2.0/modules/libgnomenu-panel-0.7.8.so
/usr/lib64/gtk-2.0/modules/libglobalmenu-gnome-0.7.8.so
/usr/lib64/gtk-2.0/modules/libgnomenu-panel.la
/usr/lib64/gtk-2.0/modules/libglobalmenu-gnome.la
/usr/lib64/gtk-2.0/modules/libgnomenu-panel.so
/usr/lib64/gtk-2.0/modules/libglobalmenu-gnome.so

even if it looks harmless, versioned soname for a gtk-module is unneeded. Look 
a libcanberra 
and other gnome provided gtk modules for reference.

The versions attribute to libtool -- if you pass any version to libtool it will 
make
a real so with the version name and make symlinks.

Are there any particular reasons to strip the versions from the sonames? If not 
I
would rather leave the version numbers there.

Well unless you need it somewhere else, gtk+ doesn't seem to care when loading 
modules and no other gtk 
module does it.

I don't need it anywhere else.

Fixed in e24e9.
