+1 for bumping the soversion.

none will change the soversion every time, it should only done once before 15.12. bumping the soname now makes it clear, that we broke the api after 15.08, otherwise we forget to bump it before releasing. Also with bumping the soversion we make it easier for application to install both versions and that they use the correct one.

If someone has an app that is compiled against the 15.08 version it links to the *.so.5. If the lib re recompiled, it is installed as *.so.6. when recompiling the application it uses the *.so.6. Otherwise people would stumple into errors, and everytime have to compile everything.

Keep in mind soversion is not related anyhow with the version of the lib. 5.1 is not a valid soversion. Only simple integer values are valid.
