libtool has VERSION_INFO [1], cmake has SOVERSION/VERSION instead (although it has different format). Also libtool has RELEASE [2] while cmake do not have analog yet [3], hence manual symlinks should be created. [1]: https://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/Libtool-versioning.html [2]: https://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/Release-numbers.html [3]: https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/issues/17652 Plus osx has compatibility_version/current_version dylib properties and cmake do not have separate properties for them [4], hence manual LINK_FLAGS. And also there INSTALL_NAME_DIR property which should be adjusted too. [4]: https://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=4383 So after all changes, here is an example before/after for osx and linux: # osx # autotools .libs/libevent_pthreads-2.2.1.dylib .libs/libevent_pthreads.dylib -> libevent_pthreads-2.2.1.dylib /usr/local/lib/libevent_pthreads-2.2.1.dylib (compatibility version 2.0.0, current version 2.0.0) # cmake # before patch lib/libevent_pthreads.2.2.0.dylib lib/libevent_pthreads.dylib -> libevent_pthreads.2.2.0.dylib @rpath/libevent_pthreads.2.2.0.dylib (compatibility version 2.2.0, current version 0.0.0) # after patch lib/libevent_pthreads-2.2.1.dylib lib/libevent_pthreads.dylib -> libevent_pthreads-2.2.1.dylib /vagrant/.cmake/inst/lib/libevent_pthreads-2.2.1.dylib (compatibility version 2.0.0, current version 2.0.0) # linux # autotools .libs/libevent_pthreads-2.2.so.1 -> libevent_pthreads-2.2.so.1.0.0 .libs/libevent_pthreads-2.2.so.1.0.0 .libs/libevent_pthreads.so -> libevent_pthreads-2.2.so.1.0.0 # cmake # before patch lib/libevent_pthreads.so -> libevent_pthreads.so.2.2.0 lib/libevent_pthreads.so.2.2.0 # after patch lib/libevent_pthreads-2.2.so -> libevent_pthreads-2.2.so.1 lib/libevent_pthreads-2.2.so.1 -> libevent_pthreads-2.2.so.1.0.0 lib/libevent_pthreads-2.2.so.1.0.0 lib/libevent_pthreads.so -> libevent_pthreads-2.2.so.1.0.0 Closes: #838 (cherry-picked) Closes: #760
