libgtop versioning

[Ronald de Man <deman win tue nl>]

Hello,

Trying to update libgtop/gtop from CVS I ran into a few problems.
The reason turned out to be the following:

lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           16 Jul 26 21:49 /usr/local/lib/libgtop.so -> libgtop.so.0.0.0*
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           16 Jul 26 21:49 /usr/local/lib/libgtop.so.0 -> libgtop.so.0.0.8*
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     root        31465 Jul 26 21:49 /usr/local/lib/libgtop.so.0.0.0*
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     root        28821 Feb 16 23:49 /usr/local/lib/libgtop.so.0.0.8*
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           16 Apr 25 19:55 /usr/local/lib/libgtop.so.2 -> libgtop.so.2.0.0*
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     root        31305 Apr 25 19:55 /usr/local/lib/libgtop.so.2.0.0*

Ok, so I could have kept my system a bit cleaner by removing old
libraries, but what is more important is the way these libraries
are numbered:

Feb 16	0.0.8
Apr 25	2.0.0
Jul 26	0.0.0

Why is that? No wonder I'm having problems!

I've had this happen one time earlier, also with libgtop.
