2) linux-firmware-mediatek

2a) d/copyright for mediatek/*
It currently states:
Files: mediatek/*
Copyright: Unknown
License: Redistributable-mediatek

It's a bit unsettling to have "Copyright: unknown" for the binary blobs,
at the same time we state a license for it. Can we do better here? I see
that LICENSE.mediatek is a bit vague, as it says "aforementioned
firmware files" without a clear indication of which ones, and there is
no year. So it depends from where this file was obtained from. Which
leads me to point 2b below.

2b) d/copyright "Source" line leads to a empty repository
It currently states:
Source: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/firmware/linux-firmware.git

But that URL leads to a page which states "No repositories found".

2c) d/WHENCE mentions files and directories that do not exist in this
package. Since this is not a standard file in debian packaging, I have
no expectation towards it. If it makes your live easier as it is, that's
ok. I just thought I should mention in.
