Where are you expecting those symlinks to be present ?

I am currently not using the ailing configuration, but
I can examine the install script (which does not do much
more than a recursive directory copy).

In the source tree there is a couple of libGL.so.1 (for
32bit and 64bit), but no libEGL* and no symlinks. In the
postinstall script symlinks are created for libwfb.so
(also symlinks created in the device tree).

I will reboot when I know where to look for symlinks.
