.symbols or shlibs file

[Herbert Parentes Fortes Neto (hpfn) <hpfn@ig.com.br>]

Hi,

I maintain a package which provides a .symbols
file. But it uses a dh_makeshlibs in debian/rules[0].

override_dh_makeshlibs:
	dh_makeshlibs -plibgphoto2-$(major) \
           -V 'libgphoto2-$(major) (>= $(SHLIBS))' \
           -X/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/libgphoto2/
	dh_makeshlibs -plibgphoto2-port12 \
           -V 'libgphoto2-port12    (>= $(SHLIBS))' \
           -X/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/libgphoto2_port/

Am I confusing or the package uses the two systems ? What
I understand about what the policy says is you choose one
of them (for c++ maybe shlibs is better).
