You could also suggest a policy for libs to have a libfoo.devname file
similar to the libfoo.shlibs file but naming the needed -dev
packages. If that is a good idea or not you have to think about. Just
a wild idea.

You have to do both. ldd for the full path and then filter that with
objdump. That is how dpkg-shlibdeps does it if I read the code right.
