Well, I haven't uploaded any other xstatic package yet! :) Only python-xstatic and python-xstatic-jquery are currently in NEW. > In that case I don't suppose there's any risk of having them > rejected, but it still may be worth a quick discussion with the > Horizon devs to confirm this is at all necessary, so you don't waste > your already limited available time (assuming this hasn't already > been discussed with them). I agree. However, seeing how it seems to work, it's looking like having the xstatic packages is the only way so that Horizon knows where to search for the .js files. > I'll do some asking around as well... on > its face, at least, it seems dubious that you should actually need a > Debian wrapper around a Python wrapper around a Javascript library > which is itself already packaged in Debian. If so, using which mechanism horizon may find (for example) the jquery.min.js file then? Currently, within the standard openstack_dashboard/settings.py, we have: STATICFILES_DIRS = ( ('horizon/lib/jquery', xstatic.main.XStatic(xstatic.pkg.jquery).base_dir), ) It is IMO more reasonable to package xstatic packages rather than applying patches that would need constant rebasing. Also, this helps making sure the distro package matches the current requirements.txt, also regarding available versions. Packaging the xstatic packages will not take a lot of my time. What will, is the packaging of the Javascript libraries themselves. For example, I'm not sure how to package bootstrap-scss which, upstream, is part of some ruby code (if I'm not mistaking. I'm not sure that's the correct one I'm talking about, because I had a look a few weeks ago...). Your thoughts would be welcome.
