debian/conffile.binary1
        /etc/dict/conf1
        /etc/dict/conf2

debian/conffile.binary2
        /etc/dict/conf3

And debian/rules put's them in the correct place like

        install -m 644 -o root -g root debian/conffile.binary1 
debian/tmp/DEBIAN/conffiles
        install -m 644 -o root -g root debian/conffile.binary2 
debian/binary2/DEBIAN/conffiles
