It seems that the libtool flag to not create a versioned object is "-avoid-version". It also looks like openldap already does that when compiling under Windows (from build/top.mk):
# platform-specific libtool flags NT_LTFLAGS_LIB = -no-undefined -avoid-version -rpath $(libdir) NT_LTFLAGS_MOD = -no-undefined -avoid-version -rpath $(moduledir) UNIX_LTFLAGS_LIB = $(LTVERSION) -rpath $(libdir) UNIX_LTFLAGS_MOD = $(LTVERSION) -rpath $(moduledir) I tweaked the template makefile to be: UNIX_LTFLAGS_MOD = -avoid-version -rpath $(moduledir) and it resulted in: -rwxr-xr-x 1 henson henson 811 May 22 18:41 accesslog.la -rwxr-xr-x 1 henson henson 151064 May 22 18:41 accesslog.so -rwxr-xr-x 1 henson henson 805 May 22 18:41 auditlog.la -rwxr-xr-x 1 henson henson 59072 May 22 18:41 auditlog.so -rwxr-xr-x 1 henson henson 805 May 22 18:41 back_mdb.la -rwxr-xr-x 1 henson henson 1308264 May 22 18:41 back_mdb.so [...] So it seems it should be easy enough to add a patch to get rid of the versions in the module files if so desired. I am still pending a response on the openldap mailing list as to whether they are interested in doing this upstream or not.
