The firmware-nonfree source package has files under many different licenses, so there is no catch-all '*' pattern in debian/copyright.

Ah. It's not warning about the "debian/copyright" file."Apache-2" is the file name it's warning about, "debian/copyright" is I guess the place where it was expecting to find the info.
