Maybe they aren't; I don't know enough to say.  Debian requires an overall
copyright file, that describes copyright and license terms for the whole source
archive.  I expect that it can make a general copyright and license statement,
and refer to individual source files for details where present.

The license can simply refer to the GPL; no need to reproduce it.

Thanks,
Andrew.
