Let me try it this way. In the bash .PackageInfo we have:
requires {
.....
lib:libreadline >= 8.0
.....
}
but bash itself specifically requires
libreadline.so.8
I assumed, because the requirements specify ">=", that there must
be a way of loosening the exact version built into the executable.
However, looking at a fair number of apps, they all have versions
on all their libraries -- except for the Haiku ones.
So does that make the requirements convention a bit nonsensical?
