the problem is that patching it out is not enough. According to the
general interpretaion, Debian must not distribute the file. So we need
to remove it from the tarball.
Theoretically, this would works quite nicely this way: With
$ head copyright
Format: http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/
Upstream-Name: shake
Upstream-Contact: Neil Mitchell <ndmitchell@gmail.com>
Source: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/shake
# Disable viz.js; it's hard to provide source for this
# see https://github.com/ndmitchell/shake/issues/100
# and https://github.com/ndmitchell/shake/commit/3613e6
Files-Excluded: html/viz.js
uscan would automatically repack the original tarball to not have that
file. Unfortunately, https://bugs.debian.org/748244 prevents that from
working. But that just means that we don’t get tool support in creating
the .orig.tar.gz and have to do that step manually. Therefore, I pushed
the change.
If I understand your packaging correctly, you are also not using the
embedded jquery and flot files, right? In that case it might actually be
easier to remove them as well (and simplify debian/copyright).
It is also custom to change the version to 0.13.1+dfsg1-1.
Unrelated: How useful is the stand-alone shake tool? Is it worth having
it in a module of its own?
Greetings,
Joachim
