build dstep on Linux Mint 17.2

while trying to build dstep (a tool to convert C header files to D modules):

$ dub
Running pre-generate commands for dstep...
Performing "debug" build using dmd for x86_64.
dstep 0.2.2+commit.121.gf55746e: building configuration "default"...

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lclang
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
--- errorlevel 1
dmd failed with exit code 1.

Had all the clang libs (including the *-dev packages) installed but it did not change. Here was the solution:

$sudo su -
#cd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
#ln -s libclang.so.1 libclang.so
