Bug#324121: lintian: false positives in package-name-doesnt-match-sonames

[Thomas Viehmann <tv@beamnet.de>]

Package: lintian
Severity: normal
Version: 2.3.11
Tags: patch

Hi Frank and all,

thanks for the package-name-doesnt-match-sonames check!
However, I'd like to offer two reductions of false positives:
- allow c2 suffices for the C++-transition,
- lowercase sonames (e.g. for libX*).

Attached is a quick patch.

Kind regards

T.

P.S.: Would you entertain a patch for #253884?
