…uild-Depends (closes #90) debhelper compat level is already declared via Build-Depends: debhelper-compat (= 13) in debian/control. The legacy debian/compat file causes dpkg-buildpackage to abort with "compat level specified both in debian/compat and via build-dependency". Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
