| You reassigned the bug to debhelper, without a word of comment, but to
| me it's clear that your package is at fault here.

The message was indicating a problem in /usr/share/perl5/Debian/Debhelper/*
so it is not that clear at all what the problem was.

| It's true that
| hitchhiker used to build with older debhelper versions, but that was
| only because of a bug in debhelper: #683551.
|
| If you don't want to use any build system, you have to override every
| dh_auto_*.
|
| Otherwise, you have to build-depend on packages that are needed for
| the build system to work (in this case: python-all).

If possible, it would be nice if the error message were improved to make it
clear that this is the case

Thanks for the verbose explanation,
Jari
