Essentially, you're saying that any package which requires a versioned
API should, rather than having a build requirement on the package,
should have a build *file* requirement on either one of the include
files, or the pkg-config file. Because, well, the package that provides
it might have a name change.

Is that *seriously* what you're suggesting?
