If you don't want to split the libraries into separate version dependent
packages to match to SONAME, a lintian override should be added to
override the package-name-doesnt-match-sonames warning.

The no-symbols-control-file tags should be overridden too, the
saga-depends executable and the version specific virtual package
provided by libsaga should take care of that. Although the saga-depends
executable can probably be replaced with an shlibs file to not have to
deal with symbols files for C++.

I've pushed my changes to Alioth. It includes a change to move
/usr/share/saga to the new saga-common arch:all package which will
require a pass through NEW.

What do you want to do about the triangle related build failure? I've
included a patch to exclude the gridding module to allow the build to
succeed. Do you want to wait for a fix from upstream before uploading
the package?

Kind Regards,
