1. The package you created is a native package. This generally is only useful 
for software that are specifically targeted for Debian. In this case non-native 
would be the better choice. (See [1] for an explanation of native/non-native)

2. The files README and README.source still contain default text, either remove 
the files or fill them with useful information.

3. debian/fancon-docs.docs: This file is named wrong. Either name it just 
"docs" or "fancon.docs". The part before the ".docs" is the package name it 
applies to and you don't build a package named fancon-docs. (See "man 
dh_installdocs"). Also, the contents are wrong, the man-page has more
information about that as well.

4. debian/manpage.1: That doesn't look useful at all.

5. debian/copyright: the files under the cmake-directory have different 
copyright information, you need to record that as well.

6. debian/rules: Are all the overrides really needed? Then you should document 
why they are there and delete the non-used comments.

7. debian/control: 
   a) Carefully look at the Build-Depends again, some of the packages you 
      specified are already in build-essential so no need to specify them
      again.
   b) The current Standards version is 4.0.0
   c) Consider running "wrap-and-sort" from devscripts to make the 
      Depends/Build-Depends more readable

8. The package doesn't build:
In file included from /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/src/Controller.hpp:4:0,
                 from /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/src/main.hpp:4,
                 from /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/src/main.cpp:1:
/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/src/Devices.hpp:18:15: error: 'fancon::FanNV' has not been declared using fancon::FanNV;
/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/src/Devices.hpp:21:15: error: 'fancon::SensorNV' has not been declared using fancon::SensorNV;
