for javascript dependencies, gbrowse use the latest ones. I can't
consider using the debian ones as I do not know exact gbrowse
requirements for those libraries. All I know is the current version in
use as they include it.
One possible thing would be to upgrade prototype/scriptaculous to latest
versions in debian repository.
Should I use maintainers to upgrade it?

Uhmm, not my day - old patch.:-(

While it is perfectly valid to add the man pages via a patch (especially
if you plan to foreward this patch upstream) I would consider it way
more usual to move all manpages written by a Debian Maintainer to
debian/*.1. So what you are doing is not really wrong but might not
be the best idea (= just a hint, feel free to keep it as is).

If lintian is simply nitpicking and you would like to provide the
manpages that way you might consider debian/lintian-overrides to make
sure these warnings will not hide other problems. With lintian 2.4.3
I get in addition to the manpage issues:
W: gbrowse: embedded-javascript-library
usr/share/gbrowse2/htdocs/js/prototype.js
W: gbrowse: embedded-javascript-library
usr/share/gbrowse2/htdocs/js/scriptaculous.js
As lintian suggests you might consider making the package dependant from
libjs-prototype and libjs-scriptaculous and add debian/links width
usr/share/javascript/prototype/prototype.js
usr/share/gbrowse2/htdocs/js/prototype.js
usr/share/javascript/scriptaculous/scriptaculous.js
usr/share/gbrowse2/htdocs/js/scriptaculous.js
(Just did something similar with python-cogent).

I did it before I wrote my last mail.
Thanks for your packaging work (and sorry for the confusion I might have
caused when inspecting old code). Charles, could your please have a
look if you consider it ready for sponsering?
Kind regards
Andreas.
