The component parts are under various licences. All should
follow the Debian Free Software Guidelines as a basic promise:
http://www.de.debian.org/social_contract
A list of some examples is on http://www.de.debian.org/legal/licenses
You can find the details for particular packages on your debian
system in files named copyright in /usr/share/doc
