> I got libGl.so (as a soft link anyway)


That's the expected situation. It's so that you can link using -lfoo, which expands to "a library in the search path named libfoo.so", but the dependency at runtime is to the library libfoo.so links to, so that one can have multiple versions of the same library, without having to specify the library version when linking. It's not a terrible effective scheme, though, because you can easily get into a situation where a program links directly to one version of the library and indirectly to another version, and crashes due to the resulting confusion. And in practice, another level of indirection is used anyway so that one could easily give the full version of the library to the linker.
