Oh, looks like this is a package I touched :)

looks so, yes.  Though you didn't push the upstream branch, nor
pristine-tar, please push those too.

Those are usually due to the building not using -g, or for the file
being stripped before dh_strip can do it (and put the debugging info
into the -dbgsym packages).

So you should check whether -g is passed and if not fix it (it also
implies that the package doesn't respect dpkg-buildflags), and if it is
scan its build system and check for stripping (which could also happen
if `install -s` is used, be aware).

lintian overrides are not a solution.  At least, in nearly all cases I
came across, overrides were used mostly only as a mean to hide issues.
