That's kind of a different issue.  To make "-lusb-0.1" work, all you
need is some file called libusb-0.1.so.  You could still use
"libusb.so.4" as the soname; the two don't have to bear any relation at
all to one another.

However, libusb-0.1.so.4 is a perfectly respectable soname too.  Adam
Majer's assertion that it's somehow "screwed up" seems fairly
groundless.
