Version: 6.2.2006+dfsg-1
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 2.3, 4.5, 12.5

Hello,

During review in NEW I discovered the following problems with this
package's copyright file:

cmake\cmake_modules\FindMETIS.cmake is BSD licensed.  Also the autogen files
do not have their licenses given in d/copyright.

libsrc/core/concurrentqueue.h has a different license, not in d/copyright.

Looks like general/mystring.*pp might have a different copyright holder.

libsrc/general/gzstream.* and libsrc/occ have different copyright holders and
maybe licenses; situation is unclear.

mkinstalldirs missing copyright & license.

ng/fonts.hpp -- is this really the source code for the font?

ng/ngappinit.cpp says it's a modification from a different package; what is
its copyright and license?
