libfop-java comes from the fop source package.
In ubuntu Xenial libfop-java in universe: https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/libfop-java
Here's the source package: https://packages.ubuntu.com/source/trusty-updates/fop
In debian it's in main:
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/fop "source: fop (main)"
The ubuntu copyright file only states free software licenses:

Trisquel 8.0 support ended in April 2021.
Please open a new issue in case it remains on the current supported release.
Cheers!
