Ack. My question was aimed more generally than just at you. It may have
helped if I had been a bit more careful with how I structured my reply.

That change looks right to me. Basically, if something was already
successfully building against 1.30.x (without using any deprecated APIs)
then building against 2.x is a matter of just using the new module name
(whether via pkg-config or CMake).
The SONAME bump was about finally dropping a bunch of long deprecated
things from the API. Apart from the module name change (and some minor
reshulffling of headers), there weren't any really notable changes to
the API.
