When you click on the hyperlink of those headers then you get to a
detailed description which is typically very informative and
educational. Please check out e.g.
https://lintian.debian.org/tags/debian-watch-may-check-gpg-signature.html

My hunch is that you have a strip already in your regular build, which
is why nothing is left at this stage for the Debian packaging to separate.

Thank you for your efforts. You started with an impressively big
