It would also be nice to have some smarts in dh to handle multiple -dbg packages. Currently libxcb does this:
override_dh_strip: set -e; \ for pkg in $$(grep-dctrl -n -F Section libs -s Package < debian/control); do \ dh_strip -p $$pkg --dbg-package=$${pkg}-dbg; \ done dh_strip -s --remaining-packages which is somewhat ugly.
