There are still several issues:

SHOULD:
- In dkg's %files, you are inconsistently using %name and dpkg.
  Please only use one of them. I recommend to use dpkg, only.

- You are still using %packagename. Please stop it.

- The latin1->utf8 transformation of the man-pages should be performed 
  in %build.

MUSTFIX:
- There is a circular dependency between the dpkg and dpkg-dev, introduced by
  the perl modules (dpkg can not be installed without dpkg-dev).

  I see 3 alternatives to work around this issue:
  a) package the perl modules as separate package (e.g. perl-Dpkg)
  b) move all perl modules into dpkg
  c) try to sort out the details of the perl module deps.
  I for one would choose alternative a). 
  b) is almost equivalent to a), while c) is likely difficult to implement, 
  if possible at all.

- Several directories are unowned, e.g.
  /etc/dpkg/origins
  /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10.0/Dpkg/Source
  /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10.0/Dpkg/Shlibs

- Files below %{_mandir} automatically receive %doc
  => the %doc inside of your 
  %lang(xx) %doc %{_mandir} ...
  lists are superfluous. Please remove them.
