By doing that, you've created a library that doesn't exist anywhere else.
Anything that would be built with it, would be incompatible with the real
libzdb as released by upstream. It's similar to packagers who invent a shared
library name and version when converting from a static-only package.

Upstream really ought to be involved in such a decision.


> The package is licensed under GPLv3+ OR GPLv3 + exceptions.

So far, you've included the EXCEPTIONS file in the package. That file modifies
the licencing by extending/changing the GPLv3. If those special terms and
conditions are met, the licencing would no longer be GPLv3.
