Hi Iliya,
For your next upload, you can drop this from debian/control, it's automatic in
debhelper 14:
Depends: ${misc:Depends},
${shlibs:Depends}
Please also address this Lintian output:

N:
N: According to the DEP-3 headers, this patch has not been forwarded
N: upstream.
N:
N: Please forward the patch and try to have it included in upstream's version
N: control system. If the patch is not suitable for that, please mention
N: not-needed in the Forwarded field of the patch header.
N:
N: If the patch was actually taken from upstream, please prefix the Origin
N: field information with upstream or backport, as documented in the DEP-3.
N: For example:
N:
N: Origin: upstream,

N: description. You can edit the description with quilt header -e when the
N: patch is at the top of the stack.
N:
N: As well as a description of the purpose and function of the patch, the
N: description should ideally contain author information, a URL for the bug
N: report (if any), Debian or upstream bugs fixed by it, upstream status, the
N: Debian version and date the patch was first included, and any other
N: information that would be useful if someone were investigating the patch
N: and underlying problem. Please consider using the DEP 3 format for this

P: kakoune source: trailing-whitespace [debian/rules:20]
N:
N: This file contains lines with trailing whitespace characters.
N:
N: Whilst often harmless and unsightly, such extra whitespaces can also cause
N: tools to interpret the whitespace characters literally. The tool diff(1)
N: does not like them, either. They are best avoided.
N:
N: Some of these problems can be hard to track down.
N:
N: Whitespace at the end of lines may be removed with the following:
N:
N: $ sed -i -e 's@[[:space:]]*$@@g' debian/control debian/changelog
N:
N: If you use Emacs, you can also use "M-x wh-cl" (whitespace-cleanup).
N:
N: However, if you wish to only remove trailing spaces and leave trailing
N: tabs (eg. for Makefiles), you can use the following code snippet:
N:
N: $ sed -i -e 's@[ ]*$@@g' debian/rules
N:
N: To remove empty lines from the end of a file, you can use:
N:
N: $ sed -i -e :a -e '/^\n*$/{$d;N;};/\n$/ba' debian/rules

N:
N: This watch file does not specify a means to verify the upstream tarball
N: using a cryptographic signature.
N:
N: If upstream distributions provides such signatures, please use the
N: pgpsigurlmangle options in this watch file's opts= to generate the URL of
N: an upstream OpenPGP signature. This signature is automatically downloaded
N: and verified against a keyring stored in debian/upstream/signing-key.asc
N:
N: Of course, not all upstreams provide such signatures but you could request
N: them as a way of verifying that no third party has modified the code after
N: its release (projects such as phpmyadmin, unrealircd, and proftpd have
N: suffered from this kind of attack).

X: kakoune: spelling-error-in-binary expresions expressions [usr/bin/kak]
N:
N: Lintian found a spelling error in the given binary. Lintian has a list of
N: common misspellings that it looks for. It does not have a dictionary like
N: a spelling checker does.
N:
N: If the string containing the spelling error is translated with the help of
N: gettext or a similar tool, please fix the error in the translations as
N: well as the English text to avoid making the translations fuzzy. With
N: gettext, for example, this means you should also fix the spelling mistake
N: in the corresponding msgids in the *.po files.
N:
N: You can often find the word in the source code by running:
N:
N: grep -rw <word> <source-tree>
N:
N: This tag may produce false positives for words that contain non-ASCII
N: characters due to limitations in strings.

[test/highlight/named-captures/script:2]
N:
N: The source file includes a line length that is well beyond the normally
N: human made code line length.
N:
N: This very long line length does not allow Lintian to do correctly some
N: source file checks.
N:
N: This line could also be the result of some text injected by a computer
N: program, and thus could lead to FTBFS bugs.
N:
N: Last but not least, long line in source code could be used to obfuscate
N: the source code and to hide stuff like backdoors or security problems.
N:
N: It could be due to jslint source comments or other build tool comments.
N:
N: You may report this issue upstream.
N:

N:
N: Screen: autotools/long-lines
N: Advocates: "Russ Allbery" <[email protected]>
N: Reason:
N: Upstream sources using autoconf have traditionally been
N: distributed with generated ./configure scripts as well as
N: other third-party m4 macro files such as libtool.
N:
N: When paired with automake, there may also be some intermediate
N: Makefile.in files.
N:
N: A lot of sources potentially contain such files, but they are
N: not actionable by either the Debian distributor or by the
N: upstream maintainer.
N:
N: As a side note, modern Debian build protocols will re-create
N: many of those files via dh_autoreconf. They are present merely
N: to aid in bootstrapping systems where the GNU suite may not yet
N: be available.
N:
N: Read more in Bug#996740.
