+# The MySQL client library ABI version number has the <major>.<minor>.<patch>
+# form. The major number is increased for backwards-incompatible API changes,
+# the minor number for backwards-compatible ones (for example, for adding a new
+# function), and the patch number is typically increased for each package
+# release, being in a sense redundant. Increase of the version component resets
+# the rightmost ones to zero. See also:
+#
+# http://mysqlserverteam.com/the-client-library-part-2-the-version-number/
+#
+# There is no way to deduce the ABI version from the release version, so we
+# obtain the ABI version from the SHARED_LIB_MAJOR_VERSION variable value in
+# upstream/cmake/mysql_version.cmake for each package release. Also, while at
+# it, check that the protocol version is still correct (the PROTOCOL_VERSION
+# variable).
+#
+# See also how Debian/Fedora package libmysqlclient if trying to wrap your head
+# around this mess.
