I don't see how. Well that aside, besides fixing ldconfig or updating
the rdeps of libjson0-dev, we might have a 3rd alternative:

Use the upstream, builtin --enable-oldname-compat support in json-c.
This will create a proper libjson.so lib with the correct soname. So
ldconfig won't run into this issue.

The current, Debian-only solution of using just symlinks is simply broken.
