It says compat levels before 5 are deprecated, you are using 1.
So check your compat file and change it from 1 to 9 (the current version)
The entire file is simply one number.
You might as well change the control file standards to the current one 
(or you will get lintian errors) 3.9.5 (if I remember)
hopefully that helps
