I've fixed GPL (which was basically the broken dh-make-R issue),
added a single file MIT.  For boost you probably are refering to
the text


  The code in "mvnfast/source/boost/boost_normal.hpp" is
  
  Copyright (c) Jens Maurer 2000-2001
  Copyright (c) Steven Watanabe 2010-2011
  Distributed under the Boost Software License, Version 1.0.


which is in inst/COPYRIGHTS.  I've checked the source code but the file
boost_normal.hpp is not part of the source any more and nothing else
seems to be boost licensed.  So I think you found some false positive
for a missing license here.

Thanks for your thourough checking, Andreas.
