[CDRIVER-2443] Building version 1.9.0 from tar creates libmongoc 1.0 and libbson 1.0.1 folders and files Created: 02/Jan/18  Updated: 27/Oct/23  Resolved: 02/Jan/18

CentOS 7.4 hosted on VMWare ESXi with MongoDB shell v3.4.10 installed



 Description   

I followed the steps in the "Build from a release tarball" section from http://mongoc.org/libmongoc/current/installing.html, because I wanted the latest libmongoc and libbson versions.

After I run a make install and check folders/files in /usr/local, all of them are libmongoc version 1.0 and libbson version 1.0.1 even though I get a confirmation saying "libmongoc 1.9.0 was configured with the following options" and same with libbson.

Why's this the case? Am I building something incorrectly?

Hi. This behavior is correct, the directory names and file names for libbson and libmongoc begin with "1.0". The names "libbson-1.0" and "libmongoc-1.0" are the "soname" of the libbson and libmongoc libraries, even though the version is 1.9.0.
