Hi Matthias,
sorry for reopening it but I think Sylvain request is a valid one.

Debian Policy, at ยง12.5. Copyright information states:
Packages in the _contrib_ or _non-free_ archive areas should state in
the copyright file that the package is not part of the Debian
GNU/Linux distribution and briefly explain why.
So, even if it's a "should" I think it's worth fixing. Going trhough
all the (build-)depends and search which one is the culprit is a
little boring while the fix it's just
debian/copyright:
This package is in contrib because latex2html is in non-free and we
relay on it to build documentation.
Please consider include this statement (or another form you prefer) in
the next upload for that package.
