If you want to get rid of the warning, just call LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./debian/<dir>/usr/lib dpkg-shlibdeps in debian/rules (dh_shlibdeps -l./debian/<dir>/usr/lib with debhelper). Since you're using debian/shlibs.local /anyway/, the warning isn't too dangerous because you will override what's in the DEBIAN/libcurl.shlibs file; but if you want the build to be clean, this is how to correct the warning.
