Why are you shipping it?

If it's just an example, it should not be shipped as "*-util".

If it's an utility, then packaging would make sense.

Besides this, due to its small side I'd recommend to put the xls2csv into the
main package instead of putting it into a "*-util" subpackage.

The rules are there ("make check"), it's just that this package is broken.

During builds, binaries being linked against just having been built shared-libs
occasionally require an explicit LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<path to *.so in builddir>
being set.

e.g. something along the lines of 
make check LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$(pwd)/<somewhere>"
could be neccessary.

Another common issue in such situations is config-files not being found,
because they are not installed, yet.

I haven't tried to check what may apply here.

> I build the library without any problem, not sure about yours, any logs?
I guess you have your package already installed and are not building in a clean
environment.
