19 tags overridden?!

You have to do this after running dh_pycentral. I guess you run it
before. In this case you have to fix the permissions in the directory
the files were copied/installed to. dh_pycentral then moves them to
their final location.

This is the opposite of what lintian wants you to do. It complains that
this script *misses* executable permissions.
