<para><command>ln -s libxvidcore.so.4 /usr/lib/libxvidcore.so</command>:
This command makes applications linked against
<filename class="libraryfile">.so</filename> names, link to
<filename class="libraryfile">.so.<replaceable>MAJOR</replaceable></filename>.
This ensures better binary compatibility, as
<application>XviD</application> developers take care not changing the
<replaceable>MAJOR</replaceable> number until there is an incompatible
<acronym>ABI</acronym> change.</para>
