Description Paul Éric Despretz 2013-06-25 21:23:40 CEST
Description of problem:
name of the rpm : libdvdnav4 and lib64dvdnav4
The lib installed isn't in accordance with the name of the rpm.
Is there a way to know which version is really installed ?
If 4.1.2 then upgrade to 4.2.0.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
claimed to be 4.2.0 but the file installed are  â/usr/lib/libdvdnav.so.4.1.2 or 
 â/usr/lib64/libdvdnav.so.4.1.2

How reproducible: always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open CCM
2. search for libdvdnav or lib64dvdnav
3. list the files installed by the rpm


Reproducible: 

Steps to Reproduce:

This 4.1.2 in library file name isn't the version of the package. It tells some information about the library API and doesn't always follow the package versioning scheme (or vice versa).

Snip from libdvdnav's configure.ac:
dnl If you want to know more about what you are doing, here are some details:
dnl  * DVDNAV_LT_CURRENT is the current API version
dnl  * DVDNAV_LT_REVISION is an internal revision number which is increased when the API
dnl    itself did not change
dnl  * DVDNAV_LT_AGE is the number of previous API versions still supported by this library
dnl  * libtool has its own numbering scheme, because local library numbering schemes
dnl    are platform dependent
dnl  * in Linux, the library will be named
dnl    libname.so.(DVDNAV_LT_CURRENT - DVDNAV_LT_AGE).DVDNAV_LT_AGE.DVDNAV_LT_REVISION

So, in this case just trust the version you see in rpm. I'm closing this as INVALID.
