If using third-party libraries with MADDE, you may wish to read the 
following talk thread:

http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=48536

especially the last post, which mentions how to resolve your 
dh_shlibdeps problem, by copying /var/lib/dpkg/info/<package>.* of an 
installed package to the corresponding location in the MADDE sysroot.

There was some discussion in June about these problems:
