I am building binary amd64 packages for my software using linux Mint 17.3 (kde edition)
A client of mine reinstalled using Linux mint 18 (64 bit Cinnamon edition) and now they get a runtime error that the application can't load libmysqlclient.so.18
Low and behold that machine has libmysqlclient.so.20 installed.
I listed libmysqlclient (no specific version) as a dependency in the .deb file

Do I really have to build packages for every version?

Short answer: Yes. Welcome to Linux.

Or distribute sources and let packagers to mess it up for you.
(either way you will end up doing support tasks)
