New comment by Duncaen on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/23622#issuecomment-660557832 Comment: > While here, I have naive question raising since some time: why do we need common/shlibs at all, rather than 04-generate-runtime-deps querying xbps index for which installed package provides library? It records the minimum version that provides the SONAME, which makes it easier to downgrade and partially update things.
