dpkg-gencontrol error during dpkg-buildpackage

[Syrus Nemat-Nasser <syrus@UCSD.EDU>]

Hi.  I'm trying to implement the new packaging format on some
relatively simple packages, but I've hit an error that I don't
understand:

Excerpt:
	(...)
	cp debian/changelog debian/tmp/usr/doc/xsysinfo/changelog.Debian
	cp README debian/tmp/usr/doc/xsysinfo/changelog
	gzip -9v debian/tmp/usr/doc/xsysinfo/changelog{,.Debian}
	debian/tmp/usr/doc/xsysinfo/changelog:   57.0% -- replaced with 
	debian/tmp/usr/doc/xsysinfo/changelog.gz
	debian/tmp/usr/doc/xsysinfo/changelog.Debian:    44.0% -- replaced with 
	debian/tmp/usr/doc/xsysinfo/changelog.Debian.gz
	gzip -9v debian/tmp/usr/X11R6/man/man1/xsysinfo.1x
	debian/tmp/usr/X11R6/man/man1/xsysinfo.1x:       20.5% -- replaced with 
	debian/tmp/usr/X11R6/man/man1/xsysinfo.1x.gz
	dpkg-shlibdeps xsysinfo
	dpkg-gencontrol
	dpkg-gencontrol: error: control file must have at least one binary 
	package part
	make: *** [binary-arch] Error 29

I'd appreciate any insight into this error message.

Thanks.  Syrus.
