[Impact]
* Since ibutils 1.5.7-3 links against a libosmvendor.so.3 not present in Ubuntu 14.10 the ibutils tools are currently unusable.

* Rebuilding ibutils 1.5.7-3, without changing the source package, in an
Ubuntu 14.10 environment instead links against libosmvendor.so.4,
resulting in the tools becoming usuable.

* This problem is solved in Ubuntu 15.04 with the ibutils 1.5.7-3build1
no-change rebuild.


[Test Case]
* To trigger the bug, run the ibis command, and get the "ibis: error while loading shared libraries: libosmvendor.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" error message. 

* Once fixed, the ibus command should instead give you a new prompt.


[Regression Potential]
* Can't see any possible regressions, given that the ibutils tools are currently unusable under Ubuntu 14.10.

** Affects: ibutils (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Medium
         Status: Fix Released
