Description:

Some programs like yudit need /usr/lib/libhunspell.so to use hunspell. The current hunspell package in extra only provides /usr/lib/libhunspell-1.2.so, /usr/lib/libhunspell-1.2.so.0 and /usr/lib/libhunspell-1.2.so.0.0.0.

Would it be possible to add a symlink from /usr/lib/libhunspell-1.2.so.0.0.0 to /usr/lib/libhunspell.so?
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Won't implement
Additional comments about closing:  This versioning is done by purpose upstream. Symlinking to a generic .so file is useless, as the application probably expects hunspell 1.0, which is ABI incompatible with 1.2.
