Comment:
 The groff manual is also distributed under the terms of the GNU Free
 Documentation License version 1.3.  On Debian systems, this is available in
 /usr/share/common-licenses/GFDL-1.3 as part of the base-files package.
 However, Debian does not consider this free when the Front-Cover Texts or
 Back-Cover Texts options are used.  groff is distributed with a LICENSES
 file containing the following text (excerpted):
 .
   The groff program is a free software project.  It is licensed under the GNU
   General Public License (GNU GPL), version 3 or later.
 .
   The file COPYING in the top directory of the groff source package contains a
   copy of the GPL that was downloaded from the GNU web site
   http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.txt at 3 jan 2009.
 .
   All files part of groff are licensed under this version of the GPL (or
   licenses which are compatible with the GPL). You are free to choose
   version 3 or any subsequent version of the GPL.
 .
 I e-mailed the upstream maintainer to clarify the intent of this. Here is
 the relevant part of the reply:

   This is the intention, of course.

   Sigh.  I haven't found time to revert the FDL stuff back to GPL.  It
   basically affects only Bernd Warken and me, and we have both agreed to
   return to GPL in case FDL makes problems.
 .
 (Note that this e-mail predates the current wording in LICENSES.)
 .
 It is therefore my understanding that the copyright holders of the groff
 documentation intend it to be distributable under the terms of the GPL
 version 3 or later.  The reference above to the FDL text in
 /usr/share/common-licenses/ is for information only.

Comment:
 Based on URW's Standard Symbols font.  Current versions are AGPL-3+, but
 the copyright date here indicates a version from before the AGPL-3 was
 published, so a reasonable assumption seems to be that it is covered by
 this general statement in LICENSES:
 .
 All files in the groff source distribution are distributed under the
 terms of this version of the GPL.  You are free to choose version 3 or
 any subsequent version of the GPL.  Some are distributed under
 alternative terms as well.
 .
 This font also contains a PostScript fragment from Adobe.  This matches the
 code found in
 https://github.com/adobe-type-tools/afdko/tree/develop/c/shared/t1write,
 which is licensed under the Apache License, version 2.0.
