: """Unfortunately, this version is binary incompatible to 4.2.3 in some
aspects. [...]"""

Further discussion on the mailing list explored this topic, and
revealed that ELF symbol versioning is lacklusterly implemented in
ffmpeg, which can cause inadvertent mixing of library versions on
openSUSE, and precompiled Linux distributions in general.

Upstream says "we only add new functions" - which is ok in its own
right. verdefs, if you have them, *must*not* change under any
circumstances, but that is what they broke: the set of symbols
included in the "LIBAVFORMAT_59" verdef changed between 5.0 and 5.1.

$ abidiff abidiff /usr/lib64/libavformat.so.59.16.100 usr/lib64/libavformat.so.59.27.100
Functions changes summary: 0 Removed, 0 Changed, 0 Added function
Variables changes summary: 0 Removed, 0 Changed, 0 Added variable
Function symbols changes summary: 0 Removed, 1 Added function symbol not referenced by debug info
Variable symbols changes summary: 0 Removed, 0 Added variable symbol not referenced by debug info

1 Added function symbol not referenced by debug info:

[A] avio_vprintf@@LIBAVFORMAT_59

]

Henceforth, we're changing the .v files such that the symbol set in
any one verdef we will ever emit is never modified in future
releases.
