I used to use something like
dpkg-shlibdeps -Ldebian/tmp-library/DEBIAN/shlibs
(or whatever the exact filename is). This worked rather well, although
the documentation says that -L is for temporary use only. From memory
when I asked about this on this list a few months back, this seemed
to be the best solution.
Upstream has since separated the library and binary sources,
so I don't have an example on hand.
