Normaly that is not the way to fix this. A library MUST change its
soname when it changes the ABI.

But why do you only notice that now? Even sarge has libevent1 1.0b-1.1
already. This means that fragroute 1.2-7 in sarge is broken. Do you
want to have a binNMU included in the next stable release?

PS: You could upload a new fragroute with the current Standards-Version.
