[1] Some of the files (for ex electric-8.10/com/sun/electric/database/geometry/btree/CachingPageStorage.java, but I've not checked others) would seem to be LGPL 3+, not GPL 3+, which is the only licence listed in debian/copyright. While this isn't the end of the world (the resulting binary is GPL 3+, and you can treat all the LGPL files as GPL) they should really be listed in debian/copyright. More worryingly, some of the tests (eg: electric-8.10/com/sun/electric/tool/simulation/test/Agilent34970A.java) just say: Copyright (c) 2004 by Sun Microsystems, Inc. which technically means we don't have permission to distribute them (even if only in source form). Unless we can get a statement (from sun) that these are also under the GPL I think they need to be stripped from the source tarball (everything under com/sun/electric/tool/simulation/test looks like a good bet) I have uploaded java-gnome now though.
