dh_installmanpages is deprecated but not shown by lintian.
Here's a patch.
debian/compress files are deprecated for a while. But only 1 package in
the archive has one, and I just filed a bug, so you may not want to
bother with that.
I agree that it's not worth effort. (Well, at least my effort. :P)
