AFAIK it's dpkg-shlibdeps telling is that the library and/or encoded path to
the library can't be resolved. I think that is simply an artifact of us
building 'below $PWD' and tarring that up -- which doesn't correspond to
/etc/ld.so.conf on the build host.

For what it's worth, I got over a thousand of those for you:

1040
