Thanks, Robie, for your feedback!

I have replaced the symlink idea, aimed at preventing possible future
file conflicts, with the use of dpkg-divert, as suggested by Adam Conrad
on IRC.

Other changes:

* As you suggested, I removed the 27 debian/skype-translation-* files
  and let instead debian/rules create them when building.

* Added debian/README.source which explains the simple nature of this
  package. ;) It also mentions the reasons why I propose the native
  source package format.

* Changed debian/copyright so it refers to GPL-3 instead of GPL-3+.

So far I haven't added "Enhances: skype" to the binaries. In a previous
proposal I had "Depends: skype", but Iain Lane pointed out that you
shouldn't let a package depend on packages that are not available in the
ordinary archive. I suppose that objection would apply to "Enhances"
too.

The latest version of the proposed package is available at
https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/skype-translation

Hopefully it's now in a shape that makes it acceptable for upload.
Please let me know if there still is anything that ought to be changed.
