[cells-gtk-devel] cells-gtk newbie problem 3: Library names in debian

To be able to run test-gtk on my debian machine, I had to manually create 
these symbolic links in /usr/lib. 
For example, libgtk-x11-2.0.so was not available, but  libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 
was.

ln -s libgtk-x11-2.0.so libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 produced the first of these:

libgtk-x11-2.0.so -> libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.800.20
libgdk-x11-2.0.so -> libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0.800.20
libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so -> libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0.800.20

Is this a bug in my debian, or has the convention for naming libraries changed 
lately? Anyway, the system does not work out of the box now.
