This also happens with eom_1.10.3-2_amd64.changes as currently in the
archives.
1.10.3-2 is no longer there, so I took a look at 1.10.4-1.
The way Lintian handles "and"s and "or"s is probably buggy (see
#801182), but for this copyright file, there's a simpler explanation.
The paragraphs at lines 81 and 195 look like this:
Files: ...
License: GPL-2+
Using license from COPYING file.
This is an (unintentional) definition of the GPL-2+ license, so Lintian
correctly complains that there's more than one definition of it.
I believe these paragraphs should read:
Files: ...
License: GPL-2+
Comment:
Using license from COPYING file.
Please note: until the release of Debian jessie, the above issue did
not exist in lintian.
Yup, this tag was added to Lintian in 2.5.31.
