dpkg-buildpackages fails with
dh_clean dh_clean: error: Compatibility levels before 7 are no longer supported (level 5 requested) make: *** [debian/rules:13: clean] Error 255
Changing debian/compat to
7

makes it work again. I've got no idea, what raising the compatibility level implies. So I'm not sure, if some other stuff should be changed, too.

Tried yesterday to build a package, can confirm that the same error appears. Tried to set to level 7 - it worked, but then dh complained a bit that everything below level 10 is considered deprecated, so I set it to 10 - dpkg build package successful. I am not aware of what those levels do, or what is the current level number, or what are the differences between them. Anyway, I have submitted a pull request to solve the build.
