[Pkg-grass-general] GRASS library version names

[Steve Halasz <debian@adkgis.org>]

Hi,

I've been thinking more about the SONAME problem. GRASS doesn't use
libtool or automake AFAIKT so it would take some effort to add them in
that way. But I've noticed that 6.0.0beta1 names the libraries like so:

libgrass_gis.so -> libgrass_gis.6.0.0beta1.so
libgrass_gmath.6.0.0beta1.so

Perhaps it is OK for now to fake it by just using the libtool versioning
scheme[1] instead?

libgrass_gis.so -> libgrass_gis.0.0.0.so
libgrass_gmath.0.0.0.so

And then call the lib packages libgrass0 and libgrass-dev.
