License check [main]:

Found 3 unique license identifier(s) in debian/copyright:

COMPATIBLE (3):
  Expat                               [alias for MIT (Expat)]
  GPL-2+                              [GPL-2 or later; compatible with Apache-2.0 via GPL-3]
  public-domain                       [Not a formal license; CC0-1.0 is strongly preferred]

    "Public domain" is not a formal license and has no legal force in several
    jurisdictions (notably Germany and others in the civil-law tradition).
    A CC0-1.0 dedication is strongly preferred as it provides a clear waiver
    valid across jurisdictions. If upstream refuses CC0, the package should be
    assessed individually to confirm the public domain claim is sufficient.

Result: ALL LICENSES RECOGNIZED AS DFSG-COMPATIBLE
