Package: xorriso
Version: 1.3.2-1

Usertags: adequate incompatible-licenses

The xorriso's copyright file says:

Files: *
License: GPL-2

But /usr/bin/xorriso is linked to libreadline6, which is GPLv3+. These two licenses are not compatible.

But perhaps there's no license incompatibility, just a buggy copyright file? I couldn't find any evidence in the upstream code that the license is GPLv2-only. On the contrary, upstream COPYRIGHT file reads:

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License version 2 or later as published by the Free Software Foundation.

So presumably debian/copyright should use this instead:

License: GPL-2+
