I think my advise was to use "-i" (lower case) to get more information
how to fix the lintian issues.

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).

Kind regards

      Andreas.
