I looked in the source package, and the copyright file says Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Licence, which should be fine.

No. I don't think.

Bacause tagainijisho bundled "Kanjidic" (tagainijisho-0.9.2/3rdparty/kanjidic2.xml) is contain SKIP code.

SKIP code license is CC-BY-NC-SA.
This license is not permit commercial use. Its non-free. (Violate free software definition, Freedom 0)

http://www.edrdg.org/edrdg/licence.html (See Section 7)

Please read Kanjidic document.

http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/kanjidic_doc.html
http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/kanjidic2/kanjidic2_ov.html

I suggest that replace tagainijisho bundled Kanjidic to Kanjidic Without SKIP code version, or Remove SKIP code.

And, I reported upstream.

Oh, I didn't see section 7. Then this must be nonfree.
