- docs has duplicated entry
- watch file is missing (see uscan man page for sourceforge examples)
- http://wiki.debian.org/Proposals/CopyrightFormat could be used to better
 specify the copyright of debian/*
- Daniels name has non-utf8 encoding in FileLister.cpp, FileLister.h and
 testtokenize.cpp (upstream issue)
- Homepage tag in control is empty
- clean doesn't remove autogenerated cppcheck.1
- Vcs-((Git|SVN|..)|Browser) is missing in control. If you use a vcs to manage
 your debian package - please add these.
- copyright section in cppcheck.1 is missing because you use docbook2x-man.
 You should try to use xsltproc as suggested in cppcheck.1.xml and depend on
 xsltproc and docbook-xsl instead of docbook2x
- the correct link to GPL-2 (for your manpage) on debian systems is
 /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 and not /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL which
 links currently to GPL-3
- *-stamp will be removed by dh_clean and must not be removed by your clean
 target
- Why do you have configure target but don't configure anything? (it is not a
 standard build target - see debian policy 3.8.0.1 section 4.9)
- Why do you call dh_installexamples but don't install any example

Can you add more informations about the program to the description? Maybe a 
shortened list of features from the wiki.
