The folder name inside the tarball is no problem.  If we do not repack
the tarball we just take what is inside (sometimes there are quite
strange choices of names - we simply leave this as is.)

That's a fair reason.  I would suggest to rename it LICENSE.pt.txt (or
LICENSE.pt.BR.txt at your preference) and to not compress this file
(which can be done by override_dh_compress (you will find examples when
greping for this string in SVN.)  The debian/copyright file must not be
compressed and I would consider the same reason for any translated
license statement.

You can create a lintian-overrides file to suppress the warning and
also add a comment for the reason you have given above.

This would be great.

Kind regards and thanks for your work on this
