Closed issue by ackalker on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/33935

Description:
<!-- Don't request update of package. We have a script for that. https://alpha.de.repo.voidlinux.org/void-updates/void-updates.txt . However, a quality pull request may help. -->
### System

* xuname:  
  Void 5.13.19_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel uptodate rrrrmdFFFFFFF
* package:  
  quickjs-2021.03.27_2

### Expected behavior

`qjsc <file.js>` should successfully compile a JavaScript script or module into a self-contained executable

### Actual behavior

Compilation fails with the following error:
```
gcc: error: /usr/lib/quickjs/libquickjs.a: No such file or directory
```

### Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Ensure that both `quickjs` _and_ `quickjs-devel` packages are installed
2. Create a small JS file for testing: `echo 'console.log("Hello, world!")' > hello.js`
3. Try and compile using `qjsc`: `qjsc hello.js`

### Analysis

Neither the `quickjs` nor the `quickjs-devel` package contains the file mentioned in the error message. `quickjs-devel` does contain a file `/usr/lib/libquickjs.a` (note the missing intermediate directory `quickjs`).
