I don't really like the idea of changing what is maintained upstream,
I quote about Lintian's error (acute-accent-in-manpage) in this part.
There is a huge list of packages with this information and it seems to
me that it would even be a false positive until it is validated that
there really is a problem with this. But it seems to me that this
would be ignored for most packages due to the huge list I see in UDD.
See https://udd.debian.org/lintian-tag.cgi?tag=acute-accent-in-manual-page
A review with the command below and two review tools on this file done
last night found problems in the copyright file long before the emails
about it were sent here. And I've already contacted the DD who
reviewed the last change to talk about it and see if he can help me
change it. I await responses and a new version of this file is ready
for review. The package had undergone a license big change causing
changes to the file in a version that was sent in 2018 and since then
there have been no changes to the licensing updating only years as was changed for 2023 in a version from last year.

There might be a misunderstanding. In my understanding debian/copyright, which
is maintained in Debian, needs to be modified to match the upstream files. Right?
