It was, and packages will now fail to build (via brp-ldconfig) if they
don't package those symlinks. Though in practice packages which did not
do this would have been exceedingly rare anyway and when I checked the
package set looking for examples a year ago I think I only turned up two
examples.
Thank you for clarifying this.
So in theory without ldconfig symlinks could have remained misconfigured,
but nowadays packages are forced to take care of links themselves.
Indeed, even in the old world, my upgrade went fine, I can't exclude that
some scripting may have failed, but I never noticed any unexpected issue.
Regards.
