Unix has solved for decades? Not really, if we look at the state of adoption of this solution.

We supposedly discovered concrete 2 millennia ago but only adopted it widely 150 years ago.

I wouldn't diss people who actually have a shot at fixing the problem, even though you might not like their solution.

Is there a problem with adoption of SONAMEs?

I use debian all the time, and the major libraries are versioned, and some have more than one version available. Debian is a very common linux distro, and through it, a lot of child distros get it too. AFAIK, RedHat and Fedora do this too.

So, do you mean that the state of adoption is bad for niche linux distros?
