Lintian warnings converting copyright to machine-readable



Hello!,

I'm packaging gigalomania and want to convert copyright to machine-readable
format but I'm having lintian warnings I don't know how to fix.

The original copyright is here:
http://gigalomania.sourceforge.net/#licences

There are a lot of images with different authors embedded into single files.
For that reason I had to write a lot of license names on the License field.
Every license name is described in a stand-alone License paragraph at the end
of the copyright file.

Ex: 
License: CC-BY-SA-3.0 or GPL-2.0-only or GPL-3.0-or-later or CC0-1.0
 or CC-BY-3.0 or LGPL-2.1-or-later or GPL-2.0-or-later

I have saw this in other source packages, not so exaggerated, of course.
I've uploaded the copyright here:
https://paste.debian.net/plain/1009615

The lintian's output:
--------------------------------------------

Could you point me where the problem is?

Regards and thanks in advance.
