Good call. The package simply had not 'moved' upstream in 7 1/2 years so
neither ... had I.  So now the two most recent changelog entries are as above
and it is on salsa:

  r-cran-minqa (1.2.4-2) unstable; urgency=medium

* debian/source/format: Update to '3.0 (quilt)' (closes: #1007032)
* debian/control: Switch to virtual debhelper-compat (= 11)
* debian/control: Set Build-Depends: to recent R version
* debian/control: Set Standards-Version: to current version 
* debian/control: Add Vcs-Browser: and Vcs-Git:
* debian/compat: Removed
* debian/control: Switch from cdbs to dh-r
* debian/rules: Idem
* debian/watch: Update to https

  r-cran-minqa (1.2.4-1) unstable; urgency=low
  
* New upstream release
  
* debian/control: Set (Build-)Depends: to current R version
* debian/control: Set Standards-Version: to current version

The uploaded package will close the bug in a few minutes too.

Dear maintainer,

This package is among the few (1.9%) that still use source format 1.0 in
bookworm.  Please upgrade it to source format 3.0, as (1) this format has many
advantages, as documented in https://wiki.debian.org/Projects/DebSrc3.0 ; (2)
this contributes to standardization of packaging practices.

Please note that this is also a sign that the packaging of this software
could maybe benefit from a refresh. It might be a good opportunity to
look at other aspects as well.
