JFTR: A lintian override for a package shipping several libraries is IMHO fully correct. There is no policy to split the library package into several packages with one package per library. At least I don't know one. The package name is IMO still wrong. It should be libvxl1 and not libvxl1.13 according to the library packaging guide and a simple dpkg -S /usr/lib/lib*.so.?.?.? What's the reason to use libvxl1.13 (there are a few examples doing this like libvtk*.* - but I can't see the reason)?
