I haven't built this lib but at a quick glance:

- The package (most likely) should be non-native, and yours is a native.
- Try to improve the copyright file.
 - It misses the license, also if the lib license is the GPL v1, you 
   should provide the full license since it isn't available anymore in
   /usr/share/common-licenses/, note the GPL symlink points to the v3.
 - the line with the copyright author isn't well formatted.
 - the upstream author is incomplete
 Take a look at this thread[0], which may be useful.
- Update the standards-version
- since you're using debhelper 7, there's no need to use 'dh_clean -k' in
  debian/rules, use 'dh_prep' instead.

Perhaps i'm missing something more, but i'll leave it to you 
(and lintian, hint.)
