Check the contents of the postinst script in the binary package. The
#DEBHELPER# line gets replaced with debhelper hints based on the various dh_*
commands you've called, and if you call dh_makeshlibs, this will include a
call to ldconfig in the postinst and the postrm.
Which means you have two calls to ldconfig in the resulting postinst script,
and lintian is expecting only one. :)
