Package: libjs-raphael
Version: 2.1.0-1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

The libjs-raphael package only includes the minified javascript file. I
believe it's customary to have both the minified and non-minified files
available. The non-minified one is sometimes used for debugging.

Here is a list of some javascript packages which include both the full
and the minified versions of their javascript packages, to serve as an
example supporting my claim:

libjs-elycharts:
/usr/share/javascript/elycharts/elycharts.js
/usr/share/javascript/elycharts/elycharts.min.js

libjs-graphael:
/usr/share/javascript/graphael/g.dot.js
/usr/share/javascript/graphael/g.dot-min.js
/usr/share/javascript/graphael/g.line.js
/usr/share/javascript/graphael/g.line-min.js

libjs-util:
/usr/share/javascript/util/util.js
/usr/share/javascript/util/util.min.js
/usr/share/javascript/util/support/isBuffer.js
/usr/share/javascript/util/support/isBuffer.min.js
/usr/share/javascript/util/support/isBufferBrowser.js
/usr/share/javascript/util/support/isBufferBrowser.min.js

In cases where there is a big size difference, maintainers can chose to
split
the packaging, like it's done with, for example, libjs-yui3. But I don't
think that's the case here.

Thanks!
