Dear Joel or other maintainers:

Package ccache installs a number of symbolic links to /usr/lib/ccache,
among them clang-11 and clang++-11, but not clang and clang++.
May I kindly suggest you add these two?

Thank you for your work on ccache, Joachim

The problem is that /usr/bin/clang is created (via the alternatives mechanism)
after ccache's postinst script has run, so ccache currently has no way of
detecting that compiler name. A workaround is to run
/usr/sbin/update-ccache-symlinks manually to install the symlink.

This is essentially the same bug as #632779.

Regards,
Joel
