How to generate shared libboost_xxxx.so without the version number such as .so.1.74.0

[IHaveBeenAHero]

I was building shared libs of Boost-for-Android.

I modified build-android.sh, changed "link=static" to "link=shared" and ran build-android.sh. Finally in ./build/output, I got the libs with their soft links, such as: libboost_atomic-clang-mt-a64-1_74.so -> libboost_atomic-clang-mt-a64-1_74.so.1.74.0

However, it seems that such libs with the soft links can not be loaded by Android. My app crashed when loading such libs. Renaming libboostxxx.so.1.74.0 to libboostxxx.so also does not work.

So how can i build Boost-for-Android to generate libboost_xxxx.so only, without the soft links.

Thanks very much. I am looking forward to your response.
