Bug#863384: lintian: check license-problem-gfdl-invariants is incorrect

[Norbert Preining <preining@logic.at>]

Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.50.3
Severity: normal

Lintian finds an error in our dvipdfmx.tex in tags it as
	texlive-base source: license-problem-gfdl-invariants texmf-dist/doc/dvipdfmx/dvipdfmx.tex invariant part is: label{sec:fdl
but the document clearly states:
    pdfcopyright={Copyright © The dvipdfmx project team.
        Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
        under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.3

        A copy of the license is included in the section entitled "GNU
        Free Documentation License".},
    pdflicenseurl={http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl.html}
 
The check that made lintian jump at it comes from the following section title:
	\section*{GNU Free Documentation License}\label{SEC:FDL}
which is somehow strange.

Furthermore, maybe this is a separate bug, I cannot override this
	$ cat debian/source/lintian-overrides 
	texlive-base source: license-problem-gfdl-invariants texmf-dist/doc/dvipdfmx/dvipdfmx.tex
	$
but lintian still reports the error, which seems incorrect.

All the best

Norbert
