The reason for the shared libraries is so that a distro can ship support for older formats like LVM1 or pool but people who know they don't need it don't have to have it loaded it all the time. There's no problem to fix here IMHO, but if there was, we'd simply attach the full version (2.02.72) to the soname of those libraries to enforce the requirement to recompile. Alasdair
