Public bug reported:
Unlike all other llvm-*-linker-tools packages, this one does not install
`/usr/lib/llvm-18/lib/LLVMgold.so`. It does however install a broken symlink to
it at `/usr/lib/bfd-plugins/LLVMgold-18.so`
This results in compilation failures with clang++ when used with the `-flto`
flag for link time optimization.
To reproduce:
main.cpp:
```c++
int main() { return 0; }
```
```bash
clang++ -flto main.cpp -o main
```
Results in:
```
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/llvm-18/bin/../lib/LLVMgold.so: error loading plugin:
/usr/lib/llvm-18/bin/../lib/LLVMgold.so: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory
clang++: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see
invocation)
```
