Mh,strange but I'm too lazy to check, so I'm going to give a brief
explanation and examples from package I mine (I think that starting
from :
multi-bin; there's nothing magic here, just add another binary stanza
in debian/control file (just like the one for single bin), then
install things in debian/pkg1 and debian/pkg2 then debhelper will do
the magic for you; for example, give a look to matplotlib for a
multi-bin package.
library: that's not an easy task, and there is even an ad-hoc doc
about it, libpkg-guide (now available even as a package in unstable,
updates and patches to that doc are welcome :) ); you can give a look
to liblqr for an example.
kernel module: don't have experience, but the rule to take a "simple"
(not easy to define it) source package from unstable and give it a
look.
In case of question, ask :)
Cheers,
Sandro
