Bug#769818: Bug#766118: lintian: False positive for “missing-license-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright”



I'm seeing this same warning without the back-reference to header, for
example this copyright file:

###
Format: http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/
Upstream-Name: td
Source: http://example.com
License: dog
 This is dog license

Files: debian/*
Copyright: someone
License: other
 This is other license
###

...triggers:
W: td source: missing-license-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright dog (paragraph
at line 7)

Which is, as far as I read the policy, a definite false positive, since
the "dog" license is specified.
