I am the author of dkopp.
I do not understand the legal issues involved, but I agree to change the
license, trusting that you know what you are doing.

I changed the license as follows:

Upstream-Name: dkopp
> Upstream-Contact: Michael Cornelison <mkorne...@gmail.com>
> Source: https://kornelix.net
>
> All files copyright:
> Copyright 2007-2024 Michael Cornelison <mkorne...@gmail.com>

Is the last paragraph even necessary?

I will make a new release available shortly.
I plan to include a small technical change.

regards
Mike Cornelison
