Well, errors literally need to be solved. However, we strive for solving warnings and infos as well - specifically when its simple to solve. The VCS fields are as simple as calling cme fix dpkg-control Ma main point were not really things like "toulbar2-dbgsym" (no idea how to solve this myself) but there are several issues that are quite simple to fix. If you have no idea how (even after making lintian more verbose feel free to ask here).
