after building the package, I got some I:-lines from lintian:

I: libsbml5-dev: package-contains-empty-directory usr/lib/jni/
I: libsbml5-dev: package-contains-empty-directory usr/share/java/
I: libsbml5-dev: package-contains-empty-directory usr/share/man/

Did something strange happen during my build or are these empty dirs 
intentional?

In libsbml5-octave.install you added x86_64-linux-gnu to the path. Is this 
correct in case the package is built on some other architecture?


Also there are some W:-lines:
W: libsbml source: package-depends-on-hardcoded-libc libsbml5-matlab 
depends
W: libsbml source: package-depends-on-hardcoded-libc libsbml5-octave 
depends

Is there really any reason to depend on libc6?

PS. There are also lots of P:-lines :-).
