I think that the soname patch should be dropped for 2 reasons

* for dlopened libs it add a soname, it is wrong
* if upstream adds a shlib it may use another soname and then
  you are in big trouble. 

Maybe what could be done, besides working with upstream such that
they include sanely a shared library ogdi public libraries,
would be to keep the dlopened objects as-is in %_libdir/ogdi,
remove libogdi.so (and libogdi31.so?) and keep only static libraries
in -devel in %_libdir, and link statically against ogdi.

It also seems to me that te tcl interface object file is dlopened and
should be loaded. So it doesn't needs to be in %_libdir, nor have
a soname. It may be left in %_libdir/ogdi, or moved to the appropriate 
tcl/tk directory.
