Excellent. With the above (correctly attributed to the specific
person) in the 'debian/copyright' file, I'd say that's explicit
enough.

It would be much simpler, of course, if they would release the
software again with these permissions explicitly worded in the license
terms. Until then, including the license terms plus the clarifying
statement in the 'debian/copyright' would be a sufficient stop-gap.
