This seems to be the main reason.
I should have taken this into account because this is exactly the same
effect that I had with my own software.
The true reason seems to be the version numbering system of the linux
shared libraries (major and minor numbers) which leads to these problems:
You can easily mix several different libraries without getting warned
about this. (greetings from MS-Win*)

This works very well in my situation, thank you for the hint. On the other
