What did you do for "digging"?
$ grep -R "Jonas Lundgren"

$ grep -R "Greg von Winckel"
R/barycentric.R: ydist[ydist == 0] <- eps # Thanks to Greg von Winckel for

So Chris is obviously right. You should not rely on the DESCRIPTION file
but have a look into the code. Just mention those files in debian/copyright
and check for further missing names (may be by grepping for "Copyright").
Kind regards
Andreas.
