Well,

* You set the soname of libsnmp++.so by yourself, however this may become
  confusing even the upstream begins to name the soname of this library
  differently in the future. For example the upstream may set soname
  as libsnmp++.so.0.0.0 at first.
  Also, there is no guarantee that the API of this library won't change
  when the major version of the tarball doesn't change.
  c.f.

  Usually I think when the upstream does not set the soname of the library
  properly, we should not ship the library. How do you think?
