I would do so only as last resort Dear Reinhard, Francesco and everybody, I think that the Debian copyright file of libav 6:9.1-1 is clear enough with its comment in the header, and that it is best to keep the license information out of the description of the package. Note that the machine-readable format also allows License fields in the header paragraph to give the license information for the package as a whole.
