Empty package

[Bob Hilliard <hilliard@debian.org>]

     I have ITP'd dict-gcide (Bug#100892).  This package will provide,
conflict and replace dict-web1913.  I intend to provide an empty
(dummy) dict-web1913 package that will depend on dict-gcide.

     The only thing functionally required in the dummy package is a
control file, and possibly a README.Debian file advising the user that
he may purge this package at any time.

     In order to be allowed in the archive, will it be necessary to
provide a copyright file?

     If everything in the package is part of the ../debian directory
what should I do about a .orig.tar.gz file?  Would it be acceptable to
make this version of dict-web1913 a debian-native package, and
include the ../debian directory in the .tar.gz file?

Bob
