What does "prefer" mean in this context? Is this a strict limitation or could we still do it in case we lack a better solution?
They consider it broken. While it's unlikely inkscape would be thrown out (it's too damn useful); they are right to ask us for a single non-conflicting license for our packages.
Are you sure? Many Debian packages are composed of parts with different licenses. Not even the glibc has an uniform license, see /usr/share/doc/libc6/copyright on a Debian system.
That said, if Scour is useful independently from Inkscape, it is definitely a good idea to package it separately and do not bundle it with Inkscape.
