Was this bug report generated automatically? I think it is false positive.

Indeed, creating_themes/C/index.docbook mentions the LGPL, but the context is:

  [...]
  Would it be useful to spin off Metacity's theme parsing code into a separate,
  LGPL-licensed library so that other applications could use it more easily?

Licensecheck does not find any non-GPL files as well.

I am lowering the severity of this bug to let the current version migrate from
unstable to testing.

 mention ...

Indeed you are right. I have now updated debian/copyright in Svn and
asked for sponsorship.

I also found some GPL-3+ and Expat-licensed files, included them to
debian/copyright as well.
