If I knew what portion of a degree 30' (minutes) is, I could give you an opinion.

If it takes 60' to make one degree, then you have +0.5 degree on the right and +0.1 degree on the left. That is not bad. Left is 0.6 from desired, but I wouldn't worry about it unless you experience premature tire wear on the outside portion of that tire's tread.
If the driver sits on the left side, the LF will lean a bit more positive and RF a bit more negative, so it balances out better.

The rear toe measurement of .08' is a smidge over .125 degrees, if I am translating minutes correctly. That's a small bit inside of desired, but probably within tolerance.
Rear tires are much more forgiving of poor alignment settings anyway.

I am used to TOE-IN specs in inches, not degrees. Without knowing what a degree of toe-in translates to, I would guess below .5 degrees is not excessive.
