Bug Description

The dh-php helper used to support source packages that created multiple binary packages. This is no longer the case as it now requires a .php configuration file for each of the binary package defined in debian/control.

The following check in /usr/bin/dh_php could be relaxed to instead continue if the configuration file isn't found:
error(".php configuration file is needed for dh_php") unless ($file);

Fixed in Ubuntu 16.10 "yakkety" development:

dh-php (0.20) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Don't fail when d/<package>.php is not present to not break multiple
    binary package builds
