+- Make sqlite+dqlite both shared libs to avoid bloating RSS. In order to avoid
+  issues with packaging new versions of libsqlite3 there are a bunch of
+  DT_SONAME and DT_NEEDED hacks to ensure that rpm doesn't cause false-positive
+  conflicts or other issues.

+# This part is quite ugly, so I apologise upfront.

+# We want to have our dist/* libraries be dylibs so that we don't bloat our lxd
+# binary. Unfortunately, we are presented with a few challenges:
+#
+#  * Doing this naively (put it in {_libdir}) results in sqlite3 package
+#    conflicts -- and we aren't going to maintain sqlite3 for all of openSUSE
+#    here.
+#
+#  * Putting everything in a hidden {_libdir}/{name} with RUNPATH configured
+#    accordingly works a little better, but still results in lxd ending up with
+#    {Provides,Requires}: libsqlite3.so.0. This results in more esoteric
+#    conflicts but is still an issue (we'd need to add Prefer: libsqlite3-0
+#    everywhere).
+#
+# So, the only reasonable choice left is to use absolute paths as DT_NEEDED
+# entries -- which bypasses the need for RUNPATH and allows us to set garbage
+# sonames for our dist/* libraries. Absolute paths for DT_NEEDED is *slightly*
+# undefined behaviour, but glibc has had this behaviour for a very long time --
+# and others have considered using it in a similar manner[1].
