Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.31
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I get these lintian warnings:
W: insubstantial source: dep5-copyright-license-name-not-unique (paragraph at line 626)
W: insubstantial source: missing-license-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright bsd-3-clause (paragraph at line 622)
(debian/copyright is attached)
The problem is caused by this paragraph:
Files: ./substance/src/main/resources/org/pushingpixels/substance/internal/contrib/randelshofer/quaqua/*
./substance/src/main/java/org/pushingpixels/substance/internal/contrib/randelshofer/quaqua/*

Use of the Quaqua Look and Feel is entirely at your own risk.

whatever this program might cause.
.
Permission to use this release of the Quaqua Look and Feel is
[...]
Which declares a "alternative license" for LGPL 2.1 OR BSD-3-clause, but
does not declare the BSD-3-clause itself.
My hypothesis is that Paragraph in line 626 cannot declare BSD-3-clause
because it is already part of the "LGPL-2.1 or BSD-3-clause" combination
(see above). I would expect that an alternative license declaration does
not count as a declaration of either member license.

Thanks and Best Regards!
