shlibs.local was initially a poor solution for a less than ideal
dpkg-shlibdeps that couldn't cope with shlibs just produced by the
packages being built.

You can certainly obtain a similar result nowadays by putting the
dependency that you want in debian/control directly and by using
the -x option of dpkg-shlibdeps to strip the dependency that you did not
want.
