Bug#758402: ITP: python-xstatic-jquery.quicksearch -- jQuery.quicksearch XStatic support
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256
Hi Thomas,
If you’re going to introduce many similar packages in the archive, may I
recommend a proofread of the common description by d-l-english, CCed?
Among ugly things that strikes me as odd:
- - weird upper case emphasis (e.g., YOUR, MINIMAL);
- - incorrect upstream reference (e.g.,
s/javascript/JavaScript/;s/java/Java/;s/js/JavaScript/;s/linux/Linux/;s/bsd/BSD/;s/windows/Windows/)
Some parts may be of little relevance for a Debian package too:
> By having static files in packages, it is also easier to build virtual envs,
> support linux/bsd/... distribution package maintainers and even windows
> installs using the same mechanism.
Thanks in advance for considering.
Regards
David

> XStatic is a packaging standard to package external (often 3rd party) static

> js libraries or applications) and you definitely do not really want to merge
