------- Additional Comments From mitr at redhat.com  2007-02-07 23:48 EST -------
I have just built expect-5.43.0-7 with the abovementioned changes (and some
other cleanups).

This leaves:
E: expect invalid-soname /usr/lib/libexpect5.43.so libexpect5.43.so
I have no idea where did the rpmlint's rules for soname come from.  The upstream
libexpect man page explicitly recommends linking with -lexpect5.43, so changing
the soname would break this.

I can change the soname, but it's a deviation from upstream and an extra patch
to maintain, so I'd prefer to see some benefit to the change.  Ville, any idea
why rpmlint restricts soname values?
