Hi Ben,
in this paragraph, I summarise the situation of the binary executables, taking
dynamic linking into account ("links to libc6, libgcc, libstdc++ and zlib1g").
This is why the "GPL-3+ with runtime exception" and "zlib" licenses are not
present in full in this debian/copyright file.
Have a nice day,
Charles
