You don't need to duplicate the License text multiple times. You can simply specify the License field for the files covered by the license in question. For example: Files: debian/* Copyright: 2013-2014, Daniel Lintott <[email protected]> License: GPL-2.0+ Then specify the license text seperately. License: GPL-2.0+ This package is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
