Should we really override this? It's obviously a spurious warning in
this particular case, but it is not caused by our packaging but by dpkg.
Silencing it will mean that duplicate relations that we might cause by
mistake in the future will go unnoticed. Once dpkg has better handling
of shlibs:Depends (which I think is actually being implemented), the
warning will disappear.

So I propose not to override this warning.
