Package: debhelper,lintian
Severity: serious
Tags: sid buster

The last gcc-8 upload was automatically rejected with

E: libgomp-plugin-nvptx1-dbgsym: usr-share-doc-symlink-to-foreign-package
libgomp-plugin-nvptx1
E: gcc-8-offload-nvptx-dbgsym: usr-share-doc-symlink-to-foreign-package
gcc-8-offload-nvptx

These are automatically generated packages by dehelper. I don't think that there
should be automatic rejections for automatically generated packages at all.
