Public bug reported:

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/x86_64-linux-gnu:

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).
