You make a standard package for the library ('standard' as regular
debian package, not one using the user/something section declaration)
and you declare it as a dependency in the main, user-installable
application package (in the control file). You then put that package
into your repository alongside your application package; it will not
show in the installer, but the installer will automatically pull it when
installing the application.
