I would be happy to quote you on "the default license is in effect", I
believe it would be enough to get wireshark accepted into Debian.
This is about those files:
epan/epan.c
epan/exceptions.h
epan/dfilter/gencode.h
epan/dfilter/glib-util.c
epan/dfilter/glib-util.h
epan/dissectors/packet-bootparams.h
epan/dissectors/packet-mount.h
epan/dissectors/packet-nfs.h
epan/dissectors/packet-nlm.h
epan/dissectors/packet-x11-keysym.h
gtk/win32-file-dlg.h
tools/lemon/cppmagic.h
Also there are two other files missing details, where it would just
need confirmation:
- epan/in_cksum.h, but in_cksum.c is marked BSD
- epan/dfilter/grammar.h, but grammar.c is marked LGPL
The last remaining problem is epan/dissectors/packet-diameter-defs.h
which is noted copyright (c) 2005 by Anders Broman and has no license
attached.

I would prefer to get wireshark in now and this just needs a quick
answer for the files listed above. Please take the time.
Thanks,
