Debian Policy §8.6.5, in particular: This file is intended only as a _temporary_ fix if your binaries or libraries depend on a library whose package does not yet provide a correct `shlibs' file. [...] As soon as the maintainer of `bar1' provides a correct `shlibs' file, you should remove this line from your `debian/shlibs.local' file.
