This example is confusing, if libfoo-dbg is the package that provides 
debugging symbols for the package libfoo, then libfoo-dbg's Depends should 
be:

Depends: libfoo (= ${binary:Version})

Othwerwise it makes no sense to have the debugging symbols in an other package 
since the libfoo package would always pulls the libfoo-dbg package in.
I would change the example above to something like:

Package: libfoo-dbg
...
Depends: libfoo (= ${binary:Version})
