world/netpbm installs stuff into weird directory "/usr/sharedlink/"

pacman -Qi netpbm | grep '^Version': 
Code: [Select]
Version         : 10.86.39-1

pacman -Ql netpbm | grep lib:
Code: [Select]
netpbm /usr/lib/
netpbm /usr/lib/libnetpbm.so.11
netpbm /usr/lib/libnetpbm.so.11.86
netpbm /usr/sharedlink/libnetpbm.so
netpbm /usr/staticlink/libnetpbm.a

The directories /usr/sharedlink and /usr/staticlink are not used by anything else. netpbm's files are the only ones in there. Other packages install the unversioned (static or shared) libraries into /usr/lib.

So, is this a packaging error, should it be installed into /usr/lib as well?

Regards!
