  symlinks

Bug description:
  Inspecting the liblld-8 package contents, version 1:8-3, revealed
  something of a surprise. Below is a recursive list of what it places
  in /usr/lib/llvm-8

  ./usr/lib/llvm-8:
  total 4.0K
  drwxr-xr-x 2 rscholar rscholar 4.0K May 19 15:33 lib/
  ./usr/lib/llvm-8/lib:

  -rw-r--r-- 1 rscholar rscholar 1.8M Apr  2 02:57 liblldCOFF.a
  -rw-r--r-- 1 rscholar rscholar 457K Apr  2 02:57 liblldCommon.a

  -rw-r--r-- 1 rscholar rscholar 5.9M Apr  2 02:57 liblldELF.a
  -rw-r--r-- 1 rscholar rscholar 1.4M Apr  2 02:57 liblldMachO.a
  -rw-r--r-- 1 rscholar rscholar  43K Apr  2 02:57 liblldMinGW.a
  -rw-r--r-- 1 rscholar rscholar  40K Apr  2 02:57 liblldReaderWriter.a
  lrwxrwxrwx 1 rscholar rscholar   36 Apr  2 02:57 liblld.so.1 -> ../../x86_64-linux-gnu/liblld-8.so.1
  -rw-r--r-- 1 rscholar rscholar 716K Apr  2 02:57 liblldWasm.a
  -rw-r--r-- 1 rscholar rscholar 188K Apr  2 02:57 liblldYAML.a

  total 0
  lrwxrwxrwx 1 rscholar rscholar 13 Apr  2 02:57 liblld-8.so -> liblld-8.so.1

  As you can see, in two places it is symlinking to a file it expects to
  exist at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblld-8.so.1 which, in fact, is
  not included in the package. The same is true of the packages from the
  LLVM official apt repository in distributions xenial through disco.

  I'm running Kubuntu 19.04 "Disco Dingo" on a Lenovo ThinkPad T420s
  (Core i7 2nd. Gen).
