[pkg-firebird-general] Bug#485749: Development symlinks point to exact filename version (.so.x.y.z) instead of soname (.so.SOVER)

[Damyan Ivanov]

Package: firebird2.0-dev
Version: 2.0.1.12855.ds1-8
Severity: serious
Tags: patch pending

firebird2.0-dev constains the following symlink:

  libfbclient.so --> libfbclient2.so.2.0.4

This breaks when the libfbclient2 package is upgraded to version 2.1.0
(currently in experimental) as it contains libfbclient2.so.2.1.0.

The fix is to point the development symlink to libfbclient.so.2 instead,
which is available in all versions of libfbclient2 package.
