Or just make an dh_installmanpages out of it. When I compile unstable packages under potato, it is in most cases enough to just replace dh_installman with dh_installmanpages and export DH_COMPAT=3 with export DH_COMPAT=2. (It would be nice to know beforehand, if versioned buildepends are caused by incompatibility with the potato versions or due to naming only the versions the maintainer tested it under, but hey - where would the fun to backport packages then?)
