I agree, and have filed a removal request: #509620

I've chosen to remove phpbb2 and not provide a dummy upgrade package. We 
cannot guarantee a fully automatic upgrade, and providing an empty package 
will break an existing installation. Removing phpbb2 altogether allows to 
upgrade the system to lenny with the forum still in tact, and then to migrate 
it over to the newly available phpbb3 package.
