AFAICT, you don't have to ship an empty file in the package [1], you
just have to take care to remove it.  It's just that Anton decided to
do this for bg.rws, so I followed the same approach for the other
file.

It doesn't need it, I think (a proof is that bg-en.rws was not a file
in the package before bgoffice/3.0-11, but it was still generated).
The only discomfort is having unowned files in /var/lib/aspell, and
taking care to remove them manually on remove/purge.

Probably the process could be triggerized, if it's not too much work.
