I'm now back from my vacation and can dedicate some time to pagure again. > I have several understandings on it: > > Option 1 > ------------ > > * Will not use any bundled javascript libraries, no matter minified or not > * Will depend on corresponding libjs-* packages and make symlinks to provide > removed javascript libraries > * If that package does not exist, package them first This is what I was trying to do from the beginning. I packaged some libjs-* packages last year, but not all of them. Also, I was following upstream and noticed that the they add extra dependencies/bump versions of existing dependencies indiscriminately, which is not very good for us. I was trying to talk with upstream and come up with a saner approach for this, but got sidetracked. > Option 2 > ------------ > > * Only minified javascripts are not acceptable > * Will use tools like yui-compressor to generate minified js files without using > libjs-* packages > * Write d/copyright for unminified js files > Option 3 > ------------- > > * An mixture of 1 & 2 > * Use libjs-* if that lib has been packaged in Debian > * If not packaged, use non-minified version and run processor to generate > minified js files After a while, I was starting to wonder whether it would make sense to follow this approach. I noticed that packaging all the JS deps would take a long time (at the time we didn't have Grunt packaged for Debian). Anyway, I believe it may be possible to pursue the first option now that Grunt is available. -- Sergio GPG key ID: 237A 54B1 0287 28BF 00EF 31F4 D0EB 7628 65FC 5E36 Please send encrypted e-mail if possible http://sergiodj.net/
