This may be OE's policy, if one recipe contain multiple -dbg package , 
other -dbg packages all will be
a empty pacakge, only have one will contain all .debug file,  you can 
see the source "meta/classes/package.bbclass"

1129 python populate_packages () {
1130     import glob, re

1156     for pkg in packages.split():
1157         if pkg in package_list:
1158             msg = "%s is listed in PACKAGES multiple times, this 
leads to packaging errors." % pkg
1159             package_qa_handle_error("packages-list", msg, d)
1160         # If debug-with-srcpkg mode is enabled then the src package 
will have
1161         # priority over dbg package when assigning the files.
1162         # This allows src package to include source files and 
remove them from dbg.
1163         elif split_source_package and pkg.endswith("-src"):
1164             package_list.insert(0, pkg)
1165         elif autodebug and pkg.endswith("-dbg") and not 
split_source_package:    <==============
1166             package_list.insert(0, pkg)
1167         else:
1168             package_list.append(pkg)
1169     d.setVar('PACKAGES', ' '.join(package_list))
1170     pkgdest = d.getVar('PKGDEST')
...

1177     debug = []
1178     for root, dirs, files in cpath.walk(dvar):
1179         dir = root[len(dvar):]
1180         if not dir:
1181             dir = os.sep
1182         for f in (files + dirs):
1183             path = "." + os.path.join(dir, f)
1184             if "/.debug/" in path or path.endswith("/.debug"):   
  <==============
1185                 debug.append(path)

I also thought this, but  after discussing with the other guys,  the 
result is a recipe can only have
a -dbg package, and this is OE's policy.
