I think there's something more fundamentally wrong here. If this is a
regular shared library, not detached debugging symbols, it's in the wrong
directory. The *only* thing that should be in /usr/lib/debug is detached
debugging symbols. (There's a lintian check for that as well; I'm not
sure why it's not triggering -- maybe I'm misunderstanding what's going
on?)
If you're shipping a debugging version of the shared library that's a full
shared library in its own right because building with debugging changes
the library, then yes, you'll need to override a warning about the package
name. But it should be in /usr/lib.
