there have been two silc toolkit packages for debian. I do not know which has made it into ubuntu.

However, in current debian (again, I'm unsure of ubuntu), the only silc package is libsilc-1.0-2 for which I see the following:
luke@shorty:~/doc/gaim/gaim.my$ dpkg -L libsilc-1.0-2
/.
/usr
/usr/share
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/libsilc-1.0-2
/usr/share/doc/libsilc-1.0-2/copyright
/usr/share/doc/libsilc-1.0-2/changelog.Debian.gz
/usr/share/doc/libsilc-1.0-2/changelog.gz
luke@shorty:~/doc/gaim/gaim.my$

It thus contains nothing except a changelog and a copyright. To this the -dev package adds several READMEs, a TODO, and a credits file.
