Comment (by olly):

 > "dscverify: can't find any system keyrings"

 If the `debian-keyring` package is installed that shouldn't happen, and
 that package should be pulled in by installing the `devscripts` package
 (unless you've configured your system not to install "Recommends" by
 default).

 I guess we could add `debian-keyring` to the list of packages to
 explicitly install, but generally it's not a good idea to disable
 installing "Recommends" - as Debian's policy document says:

 > The "Recommends" field should list packages that would be found together
 with this one in all but unusual installations.

 > dpkg-source: warning: unknown information field 'Rules-Requires-Root'

 That's harmless - just a new field which the older tools don't know about
 and can safely ignore.

 > dpkg-checkbuilddeps: error: Unmet build dependencies: php7.2-dev
 php7.1-dev php5.6-dev libxapian-dev (>= 1.4.11)

 That strongly suggests you've skipped the step in the instructions where
 these the php -dev packages get installed...
