Bug#467425: lintian: tag sharedobject-in-library-directory-not-actually-a-shlib is confusing

[Peter Eisentraut <peter_e@gmx.net>]

Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.45
Severity: minor

I got the error sharedobject-in-library-directory-not-actually-a-shlib on a
file.  The file was missing a soname.  Perhaps you could rename the tag to
something like sharedobject-in-library-directory-missing-soname.  Otherwise
people (such as me) would be confused that the file is complete garbage or
something.  After looking five times I found the distinction between
"sharedobject" and "shlib", but that is very subtle.
