Help needed for licnse review (Was: r-cran-utf8_1.1.3-1_amd64.changes REJECTED)



Hi,

to upgrade r-cran-tibble this package is needed.  I noticed that the
code (see Git[2]) contains a file

   src/utf8lite/LICENSE.Unicode

with an extra license.  However, I don't see to what files the license
might apply.  All files I inspected are featuring the 

 * Copyright 2017 Patrick O. Perry.
 *
 * Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License");
 * you may not use this file except in compliance with the License.
 * You may obtain a copy of the License at
 *
 *     http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0

license which is the general license of all code.  Any help to fix
the copyright would be welcome.

Kind regards

        Andreas.
