Actually I'de like to see mklibs.sh rewritten to not need all this
hardcoded version. For one, 2.1.94 is not even in Debian anymore (2.1.97
is the latest now), and 2.2.0 is coming very soon. To avoid all of this
hardcoding for all possible versions, how about match things like 2.0.*
2.1.* and 2.2.*, or ever remove that all together?
