After Raphael's advice, I searched a bit and according to:
http://ftp-master.debian.org/REJECT-FAQ.html
A pear package with php license would be rejected.
There are already some pear packages with php licence in Debian but it
seems they were uploaded before the php licence problem was raised.
Have you recently uploaded new package with php licence ?

I will do that anyway but if it is mandatory to be able to upload the
package, I think I will have to be patient since I have 9 other pear
packages with php licence to upload before I can upload centreon.
