Unfortunately the package is not all GPL-2, so I am going to have to reject
the package due to a missing license in debian/copyright:

Note: There is a bootstrapping problem here.  testextras needs
r-cran-parsetools to build, but r-cran-parsetools contains generated content
using testextras, so it's not DFSG free for main until testextras is in.

I will review and accept them together to work around this.
