Whoops, looks like I am contradicting myself :-) Reason I suspect upstream-only tracking is wrong is that also Debian changes can change ABI - either deliberately or accidentally. Most notibly by adding/changing patches, but possibly also through changes to build-dependencies. I thought with node-expat I had mimiced the dpkg-shlibdeps resolved hint for libnodeXX but I see now that I did that wrong: Currently that dependency is upstream-only, but that is because the current relationship is for a -1 release where the Debian part is stripped. I now issued a new node-expat with an improved logic.
