The debian/rules is using "DH_COMPAT=6" to redefine the compat level in
debian/rules:
"""
# User lower compatibility to avoid installing [...]
DH_COMPAT=6 dh_installchangelogs
"""
https://salsa.debian.org/science-team/gmp/-/blob/master/debian/rules#L142
That bit will fail once debhelper stops supporting compat 6.
