http://lintian.debian.org/reports/Tunused-shlib-entry-in-control-file.html
currently shows several packages with the following warning:
   unused-shlib-entry-in-control-file udeb:

For an upcoming upload of expat, the following warning can occur as well:
   duplicate-entry-in-shlibs-control-file udeb:

This is due to a change in shlibs files that was needed to determine 
dependencies for udebs (as used by Debian Installer) and which is 
supported now in dpkg-dev and debhelper.

For libexpat this results in the following shlibs control file:
libexpat 1 libexpat1 (>= 1.95.8)
libexpat 0 libexpat1 (>= 1.95.8)
udeb: libexpat 1 libexpat1 (>= 1.95.8)
udeb: libexpat 0 libexpat1 (>= 1.95.8)

Please add support for these new lines in lintian so the above warnings 
are no longer generated.

See #345472 and #345475 for further info on the new udeb: lines.

Cheers,
FJP
