Bayesian statistical models and fitting algorithms
PyMC is a Python module that implements Bayesian statistical models and fitting algorithms, including Markov chain Monte Carlo. Its flexibility and extensibility make it applicable to a large suite of problems. Along with core sampling functionality, PyMC includes methods for summarizing output, plotting, goodness- of-fit and convergence diagnostics.

This code comes from the CEPHES library. Although the library sources itself contains no proper license statement, the copyright holder previously agreed to release it under the terms of the GPL. This is documented in the Debian packaging of the labplot package. Please see

for references.
Here is a verbatim copy of the statement:
This email from Steve Moshier, the copyright owner of cephes, to Helen Faulkner (Debian maintainer of labplot), and other interested parties (labplot and grace authors, grace maintainer and labplot sponsor), confirms that we may release labplot with cephes licensed under the GPL.

This is fine with me. To acknowedge your terms explicily, how about augmenting the permission to read something like the following --
This software is derived from the Cephes Math Library. It is incorporated herein, and licensed in accordance with DFSG, by permission of the author.
. If you are trying to get me to suggest a specific form for your license, then from looking at Debian programs such as dpkg it seems to me that you would find the GPL to be appropriate and the permission statement could reference one of the GPL documents instead of DFSG. Alternatively, the packages you have been talking about distributing with Debian presumably come with some sort of licenses and it would make sense to propose those licenses.
