A more permissive license should not be a problem in terms of
copyright issues.

However, Lintian is detecting saying that the AppStream metadata file
specifies a "metadata_license" field but this does not match that
file's license in debian/copyright. The latter file is therefore
incomplete, rather than the package not being legally distributable.

Hope that makes sense.


Best wishes,
