I must admit that I am fairly inexperienced at packaging, and I more
or less used the v1 diff as a template and just made mods to get it
lintian clean. I see your point, though. I assume it is possible
simultaneously to make the -ocr and -ocr-dev packages, just defining
which files go in which package. I thought defining .install files
would do the trick, but I am having no luck. Would you mind giving me
some pointers?

Which autoconfig files? I don't see these.

I am English, but I am prepared to change it. How about "tesseract-ocr
language files for German text"?
