"man debhelper", under the NOTES section, lists the differences between
the compatibility levels. One of the additions in version 5 is:
- dh_install errors out if wildcards expand to nothing.
So, since libCEGUI*.a are not being created, this results in an error.
To fix it, I guess you just need to remove the usr/lib/libCEGUI*.a entry
from debian/libcegui-mk2-dev.install, or wherever it's listed.
