The question is more why did Krita thought it was linked to libexiv.so.5 
rather than libexiv.so.6 ? I would guess a recent system upgrade, and 
cmake/ldd got confused. Otherwise 'libexiv.so' just tell the linker which of 
the installed libexiv to use, it is not used at runtime, libexiv.so.5 and 
libexiv.so.6 indicated two different versions of the ABI, they can be installed 
at the same time on a computer, and Krita can only works with one of them, the 
one that was used for compiling.
