This is exactly the problem -- if today's libpython23.so replaces last week's libpython23.so, then everything I built during the last week is going to break if the ABI changes.
That's why I think that incorporating the version number from api.tex is a good idea -- call me an optimmist, but I think that any change will be documented. ;-)
This kind of problem is NOT pretty. I went through it a few years ago when the GNU libc transitioned to versioned linking. It managed to cause a LOT of almost-intractable incompatibilities during that time, and I don't care at all to repeat that experience with Python. :-( |
