Hi,

Could you please clarify the license of extra/libkipi/pics/kipi-*.svg, 
claimed on source to be cc-by-nc-sa, thus non free.

You could push the burden on packaged libkipi by removing the extra/libkipi directory and build dep on 
libkipi (BTW decreasing file size on our archive)

If it is really a non free image please purge these files.

If it is a false positive please override like in 
http://sources.debian.net/src/freecad/0.14.3702%2Bdfsg-3/debian/source/lintian-overrides/
and add a changelog entry and a full explanation on debian/copyright. You may ask upstream to remove this cc-by-sa-nc tag on the svg file
