Hi, I'm surprised it has not yet been pointed out, but I have always considered the right place to document copyright information for individual binary packages is <package>.copyright, which ends up as simply /u/s/d/<package>/copyright. I'm also surprised to not find it right away in either policy or devref. Anyway, man dh_installdocs at least doccuments the technical point. An additional README.Debian at least in the relevant -dev packages does not harm.
