Hi Adam,

I worked with Aurélien Jarno on an Opencascade Debian package a couple of years 
ago,
here is the debian/copyright file that I did write after a full license audit of
OpenCascade 6.1, I later checked files newly added to 6.2 and did not find any 
new
problem.  Hope this helps.

It was downloaded from
  http://files.opencascade.com/OCC_6.2_release/OpenCASCADE_Linux.tgz
installed with the provided installer and then repackaged.
