[buug] HOWTO strip SONAME [hardcore dev question]

[Ian Zimmerman]

I'm looking for a way to strip the SONAME field from an ELF shared
object (and only that, not stripping any other information).

I've looked at strip and objcopy options in detail but don't see
anything close.

Thanx for any hints.
