Debhelper 4 is now quite old (even stable has 5) and will be deprecated soon. Please bump the compat and depends to at least 5. I'm confused as to why there is a doc package, if it is not a library. If it's just an application which happens to be written in Java, theres no need for API documentation, even if it happens to be auto-generatable. I certainly don't think you need to recommend a web browser. It may be installed on a server and accessed remotely for example. I've also noted a few files which don't have a licence grant but just have: * Copyright (C) 2006 Dimitri Polivaev such as ./src/com/lightdev/app/shtm/SHTMLPanel.java, ./src/com/lightdev/app/shtm/TextResources.java, ./src/com/lightdev/app/shtm/SHTMLPanelMultipleDocImpl.java, ./src/com/lightdev/app/shtm/SHTMLPanelSingleDocImpl.java (list not exhaustive) Also, given that the other changelog revisions are all UNRELEASED and contain no useful information it might be good to trim them. Normally you would keep using the same changelog entry until it's released Lastly, it doesn't build in pbuilder for me. Looks like you are missing a build-dep on docbook-to-man.
