link to c++ should be added to /usr/lib/ccache since cmake searches for it.

[Sven]

While using cmake in our project, we observed no ccache is used but ccache is installed correctly (and works with qmake for e.g.). cmake is using the c++ and will find it (/usr/bin) and therefore no ccache is used until we created a new link insicde /usr/local/ccache.

This may also be cross related with the update-alternatives, which seems to provide the symlink.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Michał Sawicz (saviq)]

Apparently it's the configure script for ccache that takes care of creating the links, so `sudo dpkg-reconfigure ccache` should get it going. Not sure yet why it doesn't create them initially - maybe if it's installed before the compiler / alternative is built up?

Maybe it should have a dpkg trigger that would recreate the links based on some criteria?
