I received an auto-reject because of a lintian error message that, as my system
says, is correctly overridden. Could anyone please tell me which lintian
version we use to determine auto-rejection and also which lintian version we're
supposed to prepare overrides for?
Should the version be the same, I surely have to figure out what else is
running afoul here.

Hi
As far as I know, the FTP masters still use 2.4.3 (before the leading
"/" and "./" was removed from file names and before the merge of
embedded-$lib -> embedded-library).

Not all of the rejections are weak rejections you can override:

Right, but my one is listed as nonfatal and the email even said I should
override if I need this.

Right, this is wha I expected as the source of the problem. Is there a reason
why the system uses an older version? Are we supposed to add both ways of
writing the overrides?

I suspect just lack of time plus the fact that 2.5.0 was a release
candidate until recently.

For right now, that's probably the easiest thing to do.
