It's auto rejected. So I think it can be technically solved.
For license-problem-md5sum-non-free-file, it's obviously a false
positive from lintian. It should not emit such if the source is the
non-free section. It should be reported as a bug for the lintian
package. And you can submit patches as well, backport to the version
that ftp-master server uses.
For source-only-upload-to-non-free-without-autobuild, it's really a
bug in your upload. You should fix it.
