This can happen if the package generates unversioned libraries that look
like development symlinks (such as /usr/lib/libfoo.so), which by default
get packaged into foo-dev but as they're real libraries will result in
dependencies being added.

If this is the case then you just need to fix the packaging so the real
libraries are not in the -dev package.
