Your package contains a non-free font:

This looks to be from here:

http://www.reflectingarea.com/styling/fonts/creators/UtopiaFonts/FontRedSuit.zip
From the zip file:
/================================================================
[utopiafonts] 1998 free font
----------------------------------------------------
this font is provided free for personal or commercial use,
it can be redistributed however it may not be sold.
...
\================================================================
This licence does not clearly allow all the DFSG-required freedoms:
http://www.debian.org/social_contract#guidelines
Please contact the font author and ask them to licence the font
under a DFSG-compliant font licence such as the OFL:
http://scripts.sil.org/OFL
http://scripts.sil.org/OFL_web
http://scripts.sil.org/OFL-FAQ_web
If they are not willing to do so or cannot be contacted, please remove
the font from the binary package and the source package and depend on
another font package or move the package to non-free.
Please contact your upstream and ask them to use fontconfig or similar
to get fonts for use by the software instead of using a specific font.
