The reason this is important is that one of Debian's main purposes for being is that you can solve your problems with nothing but the archive. If there is a problem in said CSS/JS generated by LESS, then a user cannot easily 'apt-get source horizon', edit the file, and be on their way. They really need the source code and a way to regenerate the compiled bits. Seems to me that packaging LESS would be pretty easy though, so I don't think this will be an issue in the long term. Including the compiled one is just a short-term solution. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
