Unless the package is broken and correctly applies SONAMES, it normally is.

No. Very oversimplified, ld.so at runtime looks for a library providing an SONAME.

A properly build shared library normally uses libXXXX.so.<cipher> as SONAME.
This is where the *.so symlink points to.

The *.so symlink normally only is being used by the linker, when linking a package.
=> *.so go to *-devel
=> *.so.* to the run-time package.

> Anyway, just wondering... :)
You're in error ;)
