Remove versioning in SONAME when compiling shared library

[inetic]

Out of curiosity, have you tried what eocanha suggested? That is, modifying the SONAME inside those libraries and renaming them. It is ugly, but it might be the fastest way for you to get the job done.

I tried that earlier but had some issues still (if I remember correctly). Will try again later today!

Think the linker errors are gone now (having other errors). Maybe the build script can strip the libraries like "rlp" does?
