Please find attached a patch documenting the missing licenses. I discussed
with Paul Tagliamonte who rejected your syslinux upload and he explained
that nowadays he would accept the package but file an RC bug to get the
copyright file fixed.
I believe that with this patch, your package should be safe to go through
NEW anyway. Let's go ahead and make some progress.
(BTW the switch to syslinux 6 should happen sooner rather than later, i.e.
well before the jessie freeze, let's not redo the same mistake than last
time.)
Cheers,
PS: This mail concerns syslinux and not live-build obviously, but since
the discussion started here, I send it here. If you can't merge it
quickly, and would prefer a dedicated bug against syslinux, let me know.

+Comment:
+ Some of the files distributed under the GPL as part of Syslinux
+ were actually originally licensed under other license.
+ .
+ Some of the files are dual licensed with the GPL-2+ and the MPL. For the
+ purpose of this package, the GPL-2+ license has been retained.
+ .
+ Some of the files are licensed under the LGPL-2+ but that license allows
+ explicit GPL-2+ relicensing, we assume that they are used under the GPL-2+
+ license given that they are not used to build a shared library.
+ .
+ Some of the files were published under much less restrictive (non-copyleft)
+ licenses that do still require us to copy the copyright notices and the
+ original license text. Let's do that:
