IIRC, Lintian does not issue package-name-doesnt-match-sonames if one of 
the bundled libraries does match, but my memories may be wrong.
Bundling libraries with matching SOVERSION should not be a problem (as 
long as it stays in sync).

@Jochen: please bump the Breaks+Replaces to
   libogre-1.12 (<< 1.12.10+dfsg2-3)
(or drop the version altogether) to also cover the version currently in 
experimental. It's enough to fix this in git (and if you want 
experimental which still has the old package name), no new upload to sid 
needed.
