To make sure, you don't have to read the whole bug I've cloned, here a
summarization:
The sources of tetex-bin (or better the sources of web) deliver a
file cweb.el. As that file is very outdated we've got in #170773 the
request to update it (attached). We've forwarded the request to our
upstream (Thomas Esser/Olaf Weber) and got the reply, that the file
was delivered in the tar ball for copyright reasons and it was never
intended to have it installed. Hence they refused to accept an
update.
My suggestion is now to deliver the updated version in your package.
Our tetex-bin package delivers until 3.0-7 that file in
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/cweb.el so please make sure the
Conflicts, Replaces lines etc. are set correct. The tetex-bin in that
version is unfortunately not yet in unstable so maybe it is a better
idea to delay the fix a little bit.
I keep #170773 at tetex-bin as in there is still the request to
include c++lib.w into the package, which was accepted by upstream.

Regards,
  Hilmar
