[artix-general] libp11 version incompatibility with rng-tools

Hello !

Currently libp11 provides:

> libp11 /usr/lib/engines-3/libpkcs11.so
> libp11 /usr/lib/engines-3/pkcs11.so
> libp11 /usr/lib/libp11.so
> libp11 /usr/lib/libp11.so.2
> libp11 /usr/lib/libp11.so.2.6.0

And it so happens rng-tools depends on libp11, but with specific soname version:

> /var/log/dinit/rngd.log:/usr/bin/rngd: error while loading shared libraries: libp11.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I don't see Arch providing a new version of libp11:

> pacman -Ss libp11
> system/libp11-kit 0.25.5-1 [installed]
>     Loads and enumerates PKCS#11 modules (library)
> world/libp11 0.4.12-3 [installed]
>     A library implementing a small layer on top of the PKCS11 API
> extra/libp11 0.4.12-3 [installed]
>     A library implementing a small layer on top of the PKCS11 API

And rng-tools is even newer on Arch than Artix, besides, I tried installing the Arch newer one with same results:

> world/rng-tools 6.16-2 [installed]
> extra/rng-tools 6.17-1 [installed: 6.16-2]

At this point I don't know if looking in the archive an older version of rng-tools would help.  But it seems instead lib11 mew libraries are required.

Thanks !
