That was the shared library file's old name, through 1.7.9. I changed
it when I took over maintenance of MySQL++ last year.

We use names based on mysqlpp whenever the + signs aren't allowed for
some reason. For instance, some linkers don't like + signs in their
file names, so that's why we've standardized on "mysqlpp"-based
filenames. Where that isn't a problem, mysql++ is a more accruate base
name. But then again, it seems that Debian likes to name its packages
after the actual file names within, so you could choose to use
libmysqlpp to maintain that scheme.
