I'm not sure I understand how to do this. I can of course remove the
upstream version, but:

- I still need to provide the compressed version for runtime performance
  reasons, so do I have to provide both? Do I have to provide only the
  uncompressed version and then compress them at build time (seems
  somewhat pointless)?

- I know that it's common to make a dsfg-free version by removing
  upstream files, but am I allowed to _add_ files (the uncompressed
  version) to the upstream archive?

I took the shortened form based on the example of the package ffindex
(version 0.9.3), which also doesn't supply the full one (was the first
package I could find which has a CC-BY-SA license in DEP-5 format). I'm
fine to add the entire 26K of the license, but it seems somewhat…
excessive (and non-consistent across packages).

thanks,
iustin
