You're already using source format '3.0 (quilt)', so please remove the
extraneous build-dep on quilt and the "--with quilt" invocation in
d/rules.

Some more extra pedantic comments:
- Why priority: extra instead of optional? Most packages should be set
to optional by default (yes, I'm aware dh_make uses priority: extra as
default for some reason) unless they conflict with packages of higher
priority (Policy 2.5).
- Please use "wrap-and-sort -s" from devscripts to have your
build-deps and deps in d/control listed one per line and in
alphabetical order (this generally makes it a _lot_ easier to review
changes to build-dep/dep fields in d/control).
- Consider removing the commented lines (the unused Vcs-* fields) in d/control

I've run out of things to nitpick, so I think that means your package
is about ready to be uploaded. ;)

Cheers,
Vincent
