Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.16.1
Severity: wishlist

dpkg-shlibdeps warns if an object in a public directory (e.g.,
/usr/{lib,bin,sbin}) has undefined symbol references.

                             if ($in_public_dir) {
                                warning(_g("symbol %s used by %s found in none 
of the " .
                                           "libraries."), $print_name, $file);
                            }

It would be helpful if dpkg-shlibdeps supported an environment variable to
make this warning a fatal error instead.  Indeed, given that DSOs installed
to subdirectories (!$in_public_dir) are handled separately, I would like to
see this made an error by *default* in Debian.
