another thought here. If you actually MUST have libucxx0 (= 1.2) or whatever
then the library is not doing its job and defining the soname correctly and
perhaps libucxx0 is the wrong name. The whole point of SONAMEs is that the
library may have minor changes but the interface isnt changing. Hence gtk1.2,
there were many releases for 1.2 but all were the same from a programmers
perspective.
