This appears to be right.

But I am not certain about this part.  I believe it is intentional to do
it in that order based on:

"""
Tag: package-name-doesnt-match-sonames
Severity: normal
Certainty: possible
Info: [...]
 .
  $ [...] sed -r -e's/([0-9])\.so\./\1-/; s/\.so(\.|$)//; [...]
                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^     ^^^^^^^^^^
"""

I believe that only one of them are supposed to match.
