Why priority "extra"?
You build depend on "debhelper (>= 9.0.0)", but debhelper doesn't use
such versioning scheme anymore. Even if did, "debhelper (>= 9)" would be
both shorter and more friendly to backporters.
Debian Policy 3.9.3 has been just released, you probably want to bump
Standards-Version.
Vcs-* fields are support for point to Debian packaging repository, not
upstream repository.
Unless there are good reasons (like: license issues, or tremendous space
saving), I'd advise to use the pristine upstream tarball. But if you
really must repackage, then it'd nice if:
- package had version number that indicate that the source was
repackaged (it's common to use +dfsg suffix is stuff was repackaged for
DFSG reasons, or +ds otherwise);
- you provided get-orig-source target in debian/rules.
