Public bug reported:

The package does not put libsocket.so under  /usr/lib/happycoders, as it was in 
ubuntu 9.04 (and 9.10 I believe).
Relatedly, an invalid symbolic link for *.so.0.* -> *.so is created.
It seems like in 10.04 "libsocket" package, libsocket.so.0 and 
libsocket.so.0.16 are put directly in /usr/lib .

This causes compilations linking libsocket, which worked in previous
ubuntu versions, to fail.

Workaround:
Create a symbolic link at /usr/lib/happycoders to /usr/lib/libsocket.so.0.16:
===
cd /usr/lib/happycoders
sudo ln -s ../libsocket.so.0.1.6 libsocket.so
===
