I don't think that shlibs.local is used at all.  dh_makeshlibs is
what is being used, and that just defaulted to the library
soname, so calling it with the -V parameter fixed it.  I have no
idea what would be using the shlibs.local file, but I don't think
debhelper uses it for anything.

The -L option to dh_shlibdeps made the double dependency in the
openssl package, now that I placed dh_makeshlibs and dh_shlibdeps
in the proper order.
