I think it's better to have people complain that they should
rebuild than complaining that it's broken.

Note that you actually might force other people (OSs) to do the
transition, not to break their system. You make it alot
easier for them if you actually do transition yourself so the
sonames do not get out of sync. It's quite annoying that you do
not bump the soname when you should.
