Is there an example of a package where dh cannot be used? Making 96% of
packages simpler and 4% of packages moderately more complex seems to be
a good argument to uniformize our packaging practices towards dh.

I looked yesterday at the boxbackup source package and contemplated converting it to dh from debhelper. I decided to not, because I'm having a hard time seeing a significant simplification potential. Maybe I'm just not seeing it?
Note that I orphaned the package quite some time ago, so feel welcome to simplify it as much as possible on Salsa.
