Hi,

Due to C++ ABI transition, firebird library packages are required to be
renamed.

I am thinking of renaming them as follows:
libfirebird2-classic --> libfbembed
libfirebird2-super --> libfbclient

and to make libfbembed package contain only libfbembed.so library, and
libfbclient package contain only libfbclient library. The two packages
shall not conflict with each other.

This way we'll shoot several rabbits with one bullet. (achieve several
goals with one upload).

1) Fullfill the requirement for package rename due to C++ ABI transition.
2) Shut up lintian complaining (rightfully) about mismatch between
package name and library name.


If you see any problems with the above approach, please state them.
