The init script(s) provided in FILESDIR for net-misc/kumofs has a license of GPL-2 but GPL-2 isn't within the LICENSE variable of the ebuild(s):

files/kumo-gateway.initd has license line:
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
... and is used by the following ebuilds:
kumofs-0.3.1.ebuild:LICENSE="Apache-2.0"
kumofs-0.3.2.ebuild:LICENSE="Apache-2.0"
kumofs-0.3.6.ebuild:LICENSE="Apache-2.0"
kumofs-0.4.13.ebuild:LICENSE="Apache-2.0"

files/kumo-manager.initd has license line:
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
... and is used by the following ebuilds:
kumofs-0.3.1.ebuild:LICENSE="Apache-2.0"
kumofs-0.3.2.ebuild:LICENSE="Apache-2.0"
kumofs-0.3.6.ebuild:LICENSE="Apache-2.0"
kumofs-0.4.13.ebuild:LICENSE="Apache-2.0"

files/kumo-server.initd has license line:
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
... and is used by the following ebuilds:
kumofs-0.3.1.ebuild:LICENSE="Apache-2.0"
kumofs-0.3.2.ebuild:LICENSE="Apache-2.0"
kumofs-0.3.6.ebuild:LICENSE="Apache-2.0"
kumofs-0.4.13.ebuild:LICENSE="Apache-2.0"

There are two options here -- either LICENSE in the ebuilds should be appended with GPL-2 to cover the init script, or the init script should be relicensed so that it is covered by current LICENSE (this one is probably the preferred resolution).  See also bug 425702 .
