Debugging a bit further, it seems that at the time dpkg-gensymbols is
executed, libssl1.0.0 is not in the debian/libssl1.0.0 directory but
still in debian/tmp, so

dpkg-gensymbols -Pdebian/libssl1.0.0/ -plibssl1.0.0 -c4

fails since it can't find any library there; if I run

dpkg-gensymbols -Pdebian/tmp -plibssl1.0.0 -c4

it completes correctly generating the debian/tmp/DEBIAN/symbols file.

I start to suspect that's something fishy at install phase. In fact, I
can't see the point where the files are moved from debian/tmp to their
final locations. Ah, now I see: dh_movefiles - I'll see with
DH_VERBOSE if there's more interesting messages, I'll follow up later.

Cheers,
