Note: I could even bring up the idea of using standard major and minor version numbers like
libphp.so and libphp.so.8 being symlinks to libphp.so.8.0.0.

Hi, I have the same problem: if the previous versions were able to include the major version number
into the filename (libphp5.so, libphp7.so) also into the DT_SONAME header, why cannot version 8 do
the same? Why does it generate libphp.so instead of libphp8.so?

Log: Fix bug #78681 by renaming libphp8.so to libphp.so

------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2019-10-18 09:51:33] bugreports at gmail dot com

PHP5: php5_module, libphp5.so
PHP7: php7_module, libphp7.so
PHP8: php_module, libphp8.so

don't you see the inconsistency?

either stay at "php8_module" and "libphp8.so" as all the years before or one and
for all stop the number nosense which makes configuartion and upgrade/downgrade harder then it could
be

what you are currently doing is breaking templates on buildsystems which are designed to build and
autotest/profile whatever with no real gain while a test for "libphp.so" would be easy to
implement

Do I understand correctly that the bug report here is that we should generate "libphp.so"
rather than "libphp8.so", and nothing more? Or is there some additional issue?
