I'd consider it a documentation package, so just have debian/rules
install it into debian/tmp/usr/share/doc/$packagename. If you're using
debhelper then adding a debian/docs file with the name of the PostScript
file and ensuring you call dh_installdocs in the binary rule is probably
about all you need to do.

(BTW, this should really go to debian-mentors.)
