policy on g appended to lib names



As I've seen bugs raised against packages that added the g _after_ the
soname in the package name instead than _between_ the name and the
soname, I ask:

- didn't we agree that would be better to add the "g" after the
  soname like lib0g instead than libg0, to avoid confusion with
  lib names already ending in g?

- didn't we agree that anyway this wasn't worth to be changed for
  packages already present in the distribution, as it would be a mess?


Thank you,
Fabrizio
