Hi,
Any progress on this? I'd really like to see an OGG-capable editor in Debian,
and Lives looks like a good option.
If you need more details, this was the response from FTP team (as posted in
the bug log):

Additionally your debian/copyright file is incomplete and misses
(C)holders/license data. You have to include all such differences.
Like all of libOSC/*, some of the icons.
And next, it includes a mixture of GPL/LGPL v2/v2.1 and v3.
Now you need to check if all v2/v2.1 ones are "or any later". If not it
is undistributable.

GPL or LGPL would be fine.
