add-component-copyright

The sources ship an extra orig component, but the named debian/copyright file lacks a separate entry for it.

Tarballs usually include a COPYING or LICENSE file, or a shipping manifest of some kind. It is good practice to list those license terms separately in our copyright files.

For more information please consult:

The tag is present in Lintian version 2.114.163. That is the most recent version we know about.
