The copyright file says:
This package consists of four differently licensed parts:
* The documentation is under the GFDL (see below);
* Julius (everything in the folder julius/) is coverd
by the Julius license (see below)
* CMake modules are licensed under the BSD license
(see below)
* Everything else is covered by the GPLv2
One conclusion from earlier discussions about the Julius license on
debian-legal was that it was non-free:

The thread isn't completely clear to me what the exact problem is
though...
Is Julius dynamically linked to Simon? I wonder whether GPLv2 is
compatible with the Julius license.
