you are right, that you can solve the issue with adding this dependency in d/
control explicitly. The approach I described also works with with any kind of 
dependency that end up in the Depends via a variable like ${shlibs:Depends} or 
${misc:Depends}. So you can rely on the dh to get the correct dependencies and 
updates it to a equal version dependency for package internal ones and don't 
need to list the inter package ones explicitly.
