I took a first glance at it and I see:
master at capsaicin:~/src/horde/arch/forwards--sid--3$ cat debian/source.lintian-override
sork-forwards-h3: postinst-should-not-set-usr-doc-link
Ugh. No, I won't upload a package that needs this override, unless you
explain (and convince) me that lintian is wrong here. Point is the
package should not set the /usr/doc symlink. If it does, it is a bug.
Maybe you are simply using too old a version of debhelper? Please use
the version from sid, or at the very least etch.
Your README.Debian contains upstream documentation in a quite literal
way; please replace paths such as /usr/local by those used by the
Debian packages, mention which _packages_ should be installed to
enable what optional features. Required packages are completely not
useful to list there, as dpkg/apt will make sure the user has them,
because you listed them in the "Depends:" field.

We'll see about that. Convince us you are ripe for DD-dom by making
excellent packages :)
