No problem at all :-)

Seems you missed the debian/* one ;-)

It might work using both:
* Include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/utils.mk
* If your rules file contains "clean:" then change to "clean::"
* Touch debian/copyright_hints
* (Re)generate copyright hints (no need to do a full build):
DEB_MAINTAINER_MODE=1 debian/rules pre-build
* Rename generated file as instructed
CDBS was not designed as a competitor to debhelper, but a framework for
various patterns - debhelper only beeing one of them: most other CDBS
snippets works independently from the debhelper.mk one.
So you should be able to slowly migrate from a debhelper-only packaging
style to CDBS, you need not (in theory at least) do a complete shift in
one go.
That said, I have never personally used short-form debhelper 7, so do
not know what kind of surprises it can create. With "classic" debhelper
I only know of this clean: → clean:: quirk. Please do tell if you
experiences any other oddities (preferrably via bugreports to either
cdbs or debhelper - it is getting off-topic for this list).
Kind regards,
- Jonas
