I know about fink validate. I've read the policy on shared libraries, so I think I would know what to look for in a package that builds them, but I'm not sure if that's what you are referring to. Maybe you mean that in general one should check that all dependencies are mentioned in the appropriate Depends or BuildDepends field?
"fink validate" errors on .deb file or info file etc, etc, etc. I get rather tired of explaining the same things to everyone. :
