Currently, we use the same computer for all compilations (my personal
server at OVH), which means we have only one configuration of external
packages. It's both a good thing (we can re-use binaries from previous
compilations) but also a limitation (we cannot compile two packages that
would have conflicting external dependencies). Indeed, running the bot on a
large number of distributions would solve that later issue.

Before I look further at this, I just wanted to confirm that the licensing

Yes, everything should be AGPLv3 with an attribution exception, except some
LGPL files that should have kept their original license. Copam itself is
not a copy of opamLib, but a wrapper around the opam command. There are
maybe a few files which were taken from OPAM (the Debian versioning, the
lexer and parser for OPAM files), they should be under LGPLv3. I will check
that the original headers for these files were kept, indeed.
