I think -dev provides libvolume_id.so and libvolume-id provides
libvolume-id.so.* they are different. Our shlib handler should be able
to figure that out. I still wonder what caused it to pull libc-dev
though.

Seems like we need this to work in a sysrooted env.

But we need to process symlinks to find out package that contains target so that we can create
dependency on the package that contains target like in this case we need
to create dependency on libvolume-id for libvolume-id-dev because the
symlink points to a file provided by libvolume-id


btw. nice analysis

Thx
