Hello,
I found following issues:
- - Out of date Standards-Version (current is 3.8.1).
- - You manual adding library dependencies to the package, you should use
${shlib:Depends} and while you are using debhelper also ${misc:Depends}
and drop those hardcoded depends, this is wrong.
- - You are continueing from the short to the long description, but the
long description is a single "field".
- - You could drop from debian/rules most outcommented stuff, so that it
is easier to read
Hmm the copying of the package also does not make me very happy.. an
"All rights reserved", no copyright headers in the source files, hmm

Always if we think we are right,
we were maybe wrong.
