Oh, I get it, you're shipping *both* detached debugging symbols *and* a
debug version of a library in /usr/lib in the same package.
No, Lintian will want such a package be named libpocoxmld5 because it has
no way of knowing that shared library is a debugging version of some other
library. You will indeed need an override for this case.

This is not all that you're doing, which is what was confusing me. You're
also shipping a different shared library in the same package, which
happens to be a debugging build of another shared library.
If the package contained only detached debugging information, Lintian
wouldn't be confused.
