Description

In issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3209 it was noted that references to the LGPL could be removed.  However, in https://github.com/apache/thrift/blob/master/debian/copyright#L124 there is still a reference to the license, which now lives at https://github.com/apache/thrift/blob/master/doc/licenses/lgpl-2.1.txt.  If I'm reading https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3209 correctly, both the reference to LGPL and the LGPL license file itself can be removed.
