Alright, I was blind. Should have looked closer at debian/control. :) Why are the include files packages in /usr/include/tesseract? Sounds like that should rather go into a tesseract-ocr-dev package. Or is it really needed to run tesseract? Regarding the language packages: what do they need autoconfig files (config.guess, config.sub) for? IMHO the description of the language packages doesn't sound english enough (although I'm not an englishman either). Perhaps instead of "tesseract-ocr data for German" you could use something along "Data files to make tesseract recognize german images"?
