I would expect this. Usually you have three pieces:

libfoo.so.1.0.0 (real binary file)
libfoo.so.1 (symlink to libfoo.so.1.0.0, used at runtime by users of the lib)
libfoo.so (symlink, used at build time)

No idea why that is, but without further knowledge of that lib I would
expect to see libhiredis.so.1 on the target instead of libhiredis.so
(which is probably only needed in sysroot-target).
