Hi, I noticed that the PROJECT_SOVERSION cmake variable is often bumped with patch releases, such as in #1351 (comment). According to the semantic versioning statement for this project, "Major versions maintain binary-compatibility." I'm not an expert on the reasons to update an SOVERSION variable, but I have observed that this causes on macOS that requires binaries to be rebuilt. If we are maintaining binary compatibility, it's a shame to invalidate binaries though bumping this variable (if that is what's happening).
