Well, I tried by myself ;)  How about the following.
Main changes are; omega->Omega, pstricks->PSTricks
pdftex->pdfTeX

tetex-base:
Description: Basic library files of teTeX
 This is a subset of all teTeX library files provided by Debian.
 It should give you a working basic LaTeX system.
 .
 Together with tetex-bin you'll have a minimal installation. For
 a full installation of teTeX, you should also install tetex-extra.

tetex-bin:
Description: The teTeX binary files
 This is the binary part of teTeX. This package contains all the
 executable programs belonging to teTeX, i.e. the (La)TeX compiler
 itself, and variants like pdf(La)TeX, e-TeX etc.
 .
 It also contains auxiliary programs like bibtex, makeindex, dvips
 and xdvi, and some tools for maintaining your teTeX system. Also
 included are man pages and info files about these programs.

tetex-doc:
Description: The documentation component of the Debian teTeX packages
 This package contains all the documentation of (La)TeX-packages,
 which are contained in tetex-base and tetex-extra. There are
 several FAQ's, the LaTeX Catalogue and some more documentation about
 MetaPost, fonts, PSTricks, kpathsea, pdfTeX etc.
 .
 Whenever you wondered, why there is a big emptiness below
 /usr/share/doc/texmf/, install this package.

tetex-extra:
Description: Additional library files of teTeX
 This package contains some additional parts of teTeX that some users
 might not need. This includes some PostScript fonts from Adobe,
 Bitstream, URW etc. It contains fonts like EC, some from the AMS,
 and some decorative fonts. Furthermore, there's support files for
 BibTeX, Omega, PSTricks, pdfTeX, LaTeX etc.
 .
 Together with tetex-bin and tetex-base, this will give you a
 complete teTeX installation.
