Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
Currently libnm-glib2 ships two different libraries libnm-glib.so and libnm-glib-vpn.so. This prevents a proper update to newer versions of network-managers where sonames were bumped.
Splitting these libraries into two packages is a proper way to handle multiple libraries and let them install parallel without breaking the exising linkage of applications.
In this case there should be a libnm-glib2 and libnm-glib-vpn1 package and to preserve compatibility libnm-glib2 would depend on libnm-glib-vpn1 for transitioning purposes.
