The modification to DFSG #2 that Raphaël proposes is indeed not good
but I'd say this one would clear the issues:
"The program ust include source code for all the files that are used
in building the Debian binary packages"
Which means:
- If upstream is including jquery.min.js but I'm not using it because
I'm using libjs-jquery, I don't need to repack the source tarball
- If upstream is including a a Win32 DLL but I'm not using it for
anything, I don't need to repack the source tarball
etc
