Well.... you can try to modify this package adding those metadata.
It's a bit odd, but should
work.

Do something like:

$ mkdir -p ooo/DEBIAN/
$ dpkg-deb --control ooobasis3.2-onlineupdate<complete with full
filename> ooo/DEBIAN/
$ dpkg-deb --extract ooobasis3.2-onlineupdate<complete with full filename> ooo/
$ vi ooo/DEBIAN/control

And add in control file, for example:

Priority: optional
Section: editors

save and quit from vi

$ dpkg-deb --build ooo/ ooobasis3.2-onlineupdate<complete with full filename>

This way, I get a new package with a modified control file.

Great.
