Fix using dlopen on OpenBSD

[brad0]

libraries dlopen'd on OpenBSD need to have the major version left off.

Surprising

How do you install 2 different major versions of a library at the same time? You can't do that on OpenBSD?

Shared libs and versioning are handled a bit differently with OpenBSD versus other ELF based OS. There are no symlinks. As in no libfoo.so, libfoo.so.1 symlinks. Just libfoo.so.2.0, libfoo.so.3.0.

ah OK. So will it work if the code uses libpcsclite_real.so.1.0 instead of libpcsclite_real.so.1?

I tried on OpenBSD 7.5 and I have NO problem with the current code.

In the build directory the files are:

openbsd$ ls
build.ninja                libpcsclite_real.so.1      pcsc_demo.p
compile_commands.json      libpcsclite_real.so.1.p    pcscd
config.h                   libpcscspy.so              pcscd.8
doxygen.conf               libpcscspy.so.0            pcscd.h
libpcsclite.so             libpcscspy.so.0.p          pcscd.p
libpcsclite.so.1           meson-info                 pcsclite.h
libpcsclite.so.1.p         meson-logs                 reader.conf.5
libpcsclite_fake.so        meson-private              testpcsc
libpcsclite_fake.so.p      meson-uninstalled          testpcsc.p
libpcsclite_real.so        pcsc_demo

I have no problem to run the sample code ./testpcsc for example:

penbsd$ ./testpcsc

If pcscd is not started I get:

openbsd$ ./testpcsc

"Service not available." is the expected error.

If I remove libpcsclite_real.so.1 I get instead:

openbsd$ ./testpcsc

I guess your problem is elsewhere.
