Bug Description

When I try do link against the shared library files from the libjsonnet0 package, a ton of definitions are missing, i.e. I get a huge amount of "undefined reference" errors.

Coincidentally, the libjsonnet++.so.0.15.0 and libjsonnet.so.0.15.0 files installed with this package are just 23KB and 875KB in size, respectively, which is just a tiny fraction of the roughly 20MB I get for each of those files when I build from source, so something cannot be right here.

Side-note:
It is quite annoying and useless that the sibling package, libjsonnet-dev, installs only the headers and broken symlinks to the shared object files, but does not contain the shared object files themselves.
