Ok, let's try this way.
I really don't want to delay upload, doing rpath really seems tricky, and 
amarok gives us a precedent :)

So please add lintian override.
Also I think libfsousage.so should not be included in the package at all 
(and that will remove non-dev-pkg-with-shlib-symlink warning).
