             Bug #: 12334
           Summary: llvm built with --enable-shared: libLLVM-3.0.so has no
                    soname
           Product: new-bugs
           Version: 3.0
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: new bugs
        AssignedTo: unassignedbugs at nondot.org

# scanelf --soname /usr/lib64/llvm/libLLVM-3.0.so 
 TYPE   SONAME FILE 
ET_DYN  /usr/lib64/llvm/libLLVM-3.0.so 

(same result with current svn and libLLVM-3.1svn.so)

This was detected on a Gentoo system, where the soname is used to detect
libraries to preserve on updates (until packages depending on the old library,
like clang, are rebuilt).

Mageia has a patch to fix this, only for Linux hosts:
http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/llvm/current/SOURCES/llvm-soname.patch?view=markup

Gentoo original bug report is here:
