as said before, the debug package should depend on binary:Version binary
package.

e.g.


Package: foo
Architecture: any
Description: foo package

this is the foo binary package!



Package: foo-dbg
Section: debug
Architecture: any
Depends: foo (= ${binary:Version}),
${misc:Depends},
${shlibs:Depends}
Description: Debug symbols for Foo
This package contains debug symbols for the foo package.


cheers,
