Those tags are in the binary package, not the source package. See: http://lintian.debian.org/tags/extra-license-file.html It's saying that you are installing a license file into usr/lib/icecat-2.6.15/LICENSE Unless there is some clause in the license requiring that it be present there, we usually use the debian/copyright files to be the one source of all copyright information of a package. If your copyright info is in debian/copyright, you don't have to install the COPYING, LICENSE, and LICENSE.txt files at all. something like dh_install -XLICENSE would do to make sure you aren't installing it.
