Well, "Debian 9" is oldstable, while all new packages must go to unstable
(and at most get backported later). That's a difference of two major
releases (ok, maybe 1.2 releases as to-be-Bullseye is very young, although
it did already see the flurry of post-Buster upload). No wonder the package
fails to build.

Also, I see that that OpenSuSE build service uses some hacked up homebrewed
dependency resolution -- it likely has a different behaviour than native
Debian tools, which also may be the culprit.

The official archive requires all packages to be buildable on unstable using
sbuild; pbuilder may also work -- it has different defaults (notably,
doesn't strip alternative build-dependencies) but those don't apply to your
package.
I haven't started the real review yet -- just tried if it builds -- but I
already see that the -dbg package is obsolete; these are built automatically
since quite a while ago.
