        pkgbase: do not record dependency on non-existent liby package

        liby-dev provides (only) liby.a.  liby has no headers or man pages, and
        there is no liby package.  Add a special case to record no dependency on
        the package that does not exist.

Hi Ed,

What is "liby", and how is it useful without headers?

Thanks,

Ravi (rpokala@)
