Currently (at least as of 8.1.1) we don't have the same .so.x.y.z numbers for the libtool and cmake builds (the y and z are swapped for the cmake build). While only the SONAME (the .x part) mostly matters, it is probably better to stick with the libtool convention to determine the y and z. This patch should make it easier by setting explicitly each of the current, revision, age and computing automatically x = current - age y = age z = revision
