I am bootstrapping system using OpenEmbedded/musl and we use the
content of SONAME
to rename the library package as well as shlibs code then uses it to
for dependencies as well. I kept it libc.so for simplicity but it
could be a distinct name. Coexisting with glibc is not  my usecase.
here. but if you have libc.so in /usr/lib then you are in conflict
with glibc anyway, how do you handle that ?
