+Ref: deb-symbols(5)
+Info: The <tt>shlibs</tt> control file in this package contains
+ a versioned symbol that is higher than the maximum version in
+ the <tt>symbols</tt> control file. This can result in incorrect
+ dependency generation.
+ .
+ This is specially important for udebs, as they use the
+ <tt>shlibs</tt> even when <tt>*.symbols</tt> files exist. This
+ typically happens when a package contains a call to:
+ .
+ dh_makeshlibs -plibfoo1 -V"1.0" -- -c4
+ .
+ which was not updated to, for example, <tt>-V"1.1"</tt> when
+ new symbols are introduced.
+ .
+ Please update your <tt>.symbols</tt> file or your call to
+ <tt>dh_makeshlibs</tt>.
