Package: hdf5 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 8.1 Hello,
HDF5 packages do not follow Debian policy on shared libraries: * We should have lihdf5 with the soname number inside the name of the package not the whole version of hdf. * The version number of the soname should be increased only when the ABI is changed and not on each new upstream release. Please consider changing this, it would same a lot of time for maintainers of packages based on hdf5 (jhdf, scilab, etc).
