Extracting deb packages does not seem to be enough

[axos88]

First of all, huge 👍 for this guide... I've been struggling with getting pam-auth to work with cross compilation for over two days not, finally it's working.

BUT!

it seems like extracting the deb into the sysroot was not enough for me. I had to manually create the /usr/lib/libXXX.so files manually, as it did not seem to automagically find the /usr/lib/libXXX.so.X.Y files. Do you know any way around this? If i'm not mistaken there should be a tool to auto-create those symlinks, but can't remember which...

I haven't checked if any of this works in quite a while, so I don't know off the top of my head. The guide itself is very outdated, but it's nice to see that it's still somewhat helpful.
