Then your question is not Debian related but you asked it like it was, 
so the confussion. This mail is a lot more clear, at least for me.

For your second question, remove any unneeded file when in doubt, and 
since that file is not needed you can remove it until it gets cleared out.

This is what you said on your first email, but you've not run into 
trouble since these files can be removed safely. It's more appropriate 
to say that you're wondering about the state of those files, although 
that doesn't keep you from packaging it.
