-Subject: [PATCH] utf8_range: add version marker to library (#19009)
-
-Unversioned libraries / libraries without due ABI indicators are not allowed in certain Linux distributions because it precludes the concurrent presence of multiple versions.
-
-If you have both /usr/lib/libprotobuf-lite.so.28.3.0 and /usr/lib/libprotobuf-lite.so.29.0.0, both of them want libutf8_validity.so, but if the ABI is different between utf8_range 28 and utf8_range 29, that's a problem.
-
-Closes #19009
