>From earlier discussions on debian-mentors, it seems that the correct way to
handle shlibdeps for local libraries is to call dpkg-shlibdeps with
LD_LIBRARY_PATH set so that it points to the directory where you have
libcurl.so.1. This way, dpkg-shlibdeps will use the DEBIAN/libcurl1.shlibs
for the package you are building, and you don't need debian/shlibs.local at
all for this.
Some versions of dpkg-shlibdeps (including the most recent) can use a
'-l <libdirectory>' option to specify additional shared library directories.
You may want to Build-Depends: on a specific version of dpkg-dev if you use
this.
