First I wanted to ask you "what about caption2", but then:

<snip>
drachi:[caption] >dvi2tty caption2.dvi |head -n 30
                   The caption2 package*
                        Axel Sommerfeldt
                    caption@sommerfeldt.net
                            2003/11/12
This package is obsolete!
<snap>

However, this is not true for caption(2) in 2.0.2.
Do you really need caption or is caption2 OK for you? The problem is,
that caption.sty is not contained in the orig.tar.gz uploaded to
debian.org. I've no clue, if we can simply generate another
orig.tar.gz and upload this one. Yes, we could put it into diff.gz...
Hmm, we'll think about that.
