unicode is a native Debian package which means that Debian is the 
upstream and uploads to Debian archive can be considered as releases. 
The relevant section in the policy manual:

    12.5 Copyright information

    [...]

    In addition,  the copyright file must say where the upstream sources 
    (if any) were obtained.  It should  name the original authors of the 
    package and the  Debian  maintainer(s)  who  were  involved with its 
    creation.

I think this belongs to the category "if any". Anyway, README.Debian 
file tells that the package is native; maybe clarifying it in the 
copyright file too wouldn't hurt.
