New issue by Swomp2 on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/38046

Description:
### Is this a new report?

Yes

### System Info

Void 5.18.9_1 x86_64 AuthenticAMD notuptodate FFF

### Package(s) Affected

polybar-3.6.3_1

### Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?

_No response_

### Expected behaviour

I think that the bar can replace i3status.

### Actual behaviour

The bar gives this error message:
`error while loading shared libraries: libjsoncpp.so.24: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory`

### Steps to reproduce

And if I change libjsoncpp.so to libjsoncpp.so.24 like that:
`sudo mv /usr/lib/libjsoncpp.so /usr/lib/libjsoncpp.so.24`

I've got this issue:
`polybar: error while loading shared libraries: libjsoncpp.so.24: cannot open shared object file: Error 40`

Do not do that. `libjsoncpp.so` is only for use when compiling, `libjsoncpp.so.24` is for use when running the application. (`libjsoncpp.so` is a symbolic link to `libjsoncpp.so.24` so if you rename it it will never be able to be resolved)

I cannot reproduce this issue.
Try `# xbps-install -f jsoncpp jsoncpp-devel`
You can use `# xbps-pkgdb -a` to verify the status of your other packages.
