Yes, I have seen this, however, the result was not as expected. The resulting -dbg package was empty except for /usr/share/doc/* and the other one also lacked most files, e.g. everything from /usr/lib and /usr/share.

I am aware of that, however, I should have mentioned that I am trying to build with pbuilder, as I do not want all those -dev packages in my real system.
