This example is confusing, if libfoo-dbg is the package that provides
debugging symbols for the package libfoo, then libfoo-dbg's Depends should
be:
Depends: libfoo (= ${binary:Version})
Othwerwise it makes no sense to have the debugging symbols in an other package
since the libfoo package would always pulls the libfoo-dbg package in.
I would change the example above to something like:
Package: libfoo-dbg
...
Depends: libfoo (= ${binary:Version})
