  Hi,

  I would suggest to use this "bad hack" in release 1.0.3 and check the whole
  libtool/version system for 1.0.4. At least it seems to work for my Irix
  systems (5.3 and 6.2, gcc 2.95.2 and Irix cc) and it worked for most of the
  other platforms until now.

  I think the following is happening:
  Currently SANE seems to use libtool's -version-info but not in the intended
  manner. -version-info should be used with lib*.so.current.revision.age. With
  the current lib*.so.major.minor.patch approach it would be better to use
  libtool's -release flag. Let's check this and the AIX problems for 1.0.4.

  Doesn't seem to be solved and I don't think we can solve them quickly. We
  should move this to 1.0.4 IMHO.

  Petter, please delay release 1.0.3 until Friday 2000-08-11 for doing some
  more tests.

  Bye,
  Henning
