Thanks for taking your time to report this issue and help making Ubuntu
better.
I can confirm this issue, and I found that it is because debhelper has marked
pkg-create-dbgsym as a conflicting package. Presumably this is intentional,
though I must admit I don't fully understand the details, and haven't found a
bug report with more information. See for instance the following entry in the
latest debhelper changelog:
"- Generate ddebs from debhelper instead of pkg-create-dbgsym
+ Make debhelper Conflict/Replace pkg-create-dbgsym to force it off.
+ Set DBGSYM_PACKAGE_TYPE to ddeb to get correct debian/files output."

Btw, when reporting bugs in the future please use apport by using
'ubuntu-bug' and the name of the package affected. You can learn more
about this functionality at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs.
