Very specific hacks like this feel bad. Perhaps we should try to open libvips.so.42 first, then fall back to libvips.so if that fails?

Off-topic, but do you know why termux doesn't include API numbers in library names? I'm curious.

I think it's a good idea to check if .42 exists first before the other one. However, I'm not sure how to write it without breaking the code.

To be honest, in this commit, I just added conditions that worked for me to make this package function properly. It's a dependency of a package I use, and it was only failing to validate these conditions in Termux. It hasn't caused me any issues since.

Termux always updates libraries to the latest compatible version. I haven't seen any ways to downgrade a package. I guess that's the reason why it omits version numbers in its files.

It looks like Termux needs to compile libvips with the TERMUX_MESON_ENABLE_SOVERSION=1 env set.

termux_step_pre_configure() {
	export TERMUX_MESON_ENABLE_SOVERSION=1
}

See for example:
https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/blob/38379b121bff426393df599b7b08554dcaea1c5f/packages/libmpdclient/build.sh#L15-L17

... I just opened PR termux/termux-packages#24153 for this.

? "libvips.so"
: self::libraryName("libvips", 42);

if (PHP_OS_FAMILY === "Windows") {
$glib_libname = self::libraryName("libglib-2.0", 0);
$gobject_libname = self::libraryName("libgobject-2.0", 0);
