lbry-rocksdb compiles just fine per the written instructions.

Then pip fails to install it, wheel claiming it can't find static libraries.

setup.py appears to look for

librocksdb.a (debian package librocksdb-dev)
libbz2.a (debian package libbz2-dev)
liblz4.a (debian package liblz4-dev)
libsnappy.a (debian package libsnappy-dev)
libz.a (debian package zlib1g-dev)
libzstd.a (debian package libzstd-dev)

None of these packages are part of [Debian] build-essentials or binutils packages. Maybe they should be put in the build instructions to install these libraries?

Even after installing these libraries, wheel failed. Even after re-compiling the whole package, wheel failed. pip install -e . yields the following error(s):

Installing build dependencies ... done
Checking if build backend supports build editable ... done
Getting requirements to build wheel ... error
error: subprocess-exited-with-error

* Getting requirements to build wheel did not run successfully.
  exit code: 1
    [1 lines of output]
    missing static library files
    [end of output]

note: this error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
error: subprocess exited with error

Getting requirements to build wheel did not run successfully.
exit code: 1
See above for output

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

So, which static libraries is it looking for?

I thought it might be looking for [Debian package] python3-snappy, so I installed and again tried the pip install. Result -- fail with same errors.

Then I thought that if there's a python3-snappy debian package, there must be a snappy available from pypi, so I attempted to install it [with pip] resulting in pages of errors and an unsuccessful install.

What am I missing?
