The uploaded v-sim-plugins depends on both libopenbabel2 (removed from
unstable since) and libopenbabel3, see
http://ftp-master.debian.org/new/v-sim_3.4.0.3-1.html and thus will get
REJECTed.

It's probably best to add a versioned Depends on libopenbabel-dev (>=
2.2.0-1).  If you want to avoid that, make sure the package gets built
in an up-to-date and clean unstable chroot.

Other things I noticed:

 * You got Depends on libglib2.0-0 and libgtk2.0-0 in v-sim's control
   section, those should get added via ${shlibs:Depends} usually.
 
 * You got Depends on libnetcdf4 and libopenbabel3 in v-sim-plugin's
   control section, those should get added via ${shlibs:Depends} as
   well.
