Description:
After updating libilbc from 2.0.2-5 to 3.0.3-1 both the electron(11.1.0-2) and electron9(9.4.0-2) packages stop working.
I'm suspecting this effects all versions of electron.
Because of the major release of libilbc 3 /lib/libilbc.so.2 does no longer exist and is replaced by /lib/libilbc.so.3
I worked around the issue by symlinking /lib/libilbc.so.2 to /lib/libilbc.so.3 which seems to be working fine, but I do not know if this has any side effects yet.
I think a more appropriate work around would be the addition of a libilbc2 package and setting that as the dependency for electron and other affected packages.

Changelog from libilbc: https://github.com/TimothyGu/libilbc/releases/tag/v3.0.1 (This is for the breaking changes for the major release)

Additional info:
electron 11.1.0-2
electron9 9.4.0-2
libilbc 2.0.2-5 > libilbc 3.0.3-1

Steps to reproduce:
update libilbc from 2.0.2-5 to 3.0.3-1 and try to run any electron application.

How do I edit the task I accidentally set it as low priority, when it should've been set as high according to the wiki.
