Hello,

You have overridden lintian's license-problem-font-adobe-copyrighted-fragment
most probably because hans{,-sh}.pfb only contain relicensed code.
But the package's copyright file does not document the Apache-2.0 license
for those files.


I've just noticed that one of the latest uploads contains documentation:

<snip>
This is an introductory tutorial on ConTeXt in Chinese written by Li Yanrui.

<snip>

This package is licensed in GPL v3 (The GNU General Public License v3.0). The document ctxnotes.pdf is licensed in GFDL (The GNU Free Documentation License).

I do not fully understand, how a generated PDF file can be non GPLv3, if the source is, but the GFDL is non-free, so I guess I have to exclude that Context module.
