Thank you for sharing your opinion Paul, I still think this is completely absurd though. The file jquery.js is not and will never be used, displayed, parsed, interpreted, executed, tested, transformed or processed. It's impossible to sensibly call that a source file. The DFSG states "The program must include source code" and I confirm that all parts of activemq that constitute the program executed by the end users have a proper source file. I understand it's easier for the FTP Team to consider all elements of the source packages equally. From a reviewer point of view it would be difficult to understand how every new package works and what is really used or not. It may slow down the review process and hamper the project. But I find it a bit sad that this interpretation is used to hunt down aggressively harmless issues in existing packages.

It is part of the source package, which is part of Debian, which the Debian project has promised will comply with the DFSG, which requires source code. In addition the ftp team has recently re-stated their requirement for source for all source and binary packages. If you would like to override the DFSG and or ftp team's position on it, the right mechanism to do that is a General Resolution. https://www.debian.org/social_contract#guidelines https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2014/04/msg00014.html https://www.debian.org/devel/constitution#item-4 --=20 bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise --=-tf7Hdw0ebARTkRiRrBOX Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAABCgAGBQJT2I0MAAoJEDEWul6f+mmjHd0P/1CeE2EhDtrQracQqK5U1vj9 ajRQZUiWqy7JFkJm2kCOZSJin6Xrt5o9aXEltCldb5vJaUADNdOHn37WGrp/fIWF K3F4IyeNLEg/RlQJlEhCeMf2z0DZOfUdwsmTihMS7ma1lIZmujxSIFQbO3aI135F BrY2nz/+xk4FvO3z4ce2+94FgghYqYn4N27ewfmjQvUlxIQnEBAgk9qkPQNmJ3/A 0HbLQxWofwSNnT5eqz26G7Bk7t9XWtPR23jchfmMmt/FKD8q9Dfvru0dOMbOeeIk RFFHwjB3I11hR+pwvW9Eg8ahpupIbXoEucXALaXJ8viKmzTqd6Th8TgF7CG9k8n5 cqvdGwNLhnZGWMHmA3pXhBnAqQTEe+fuO/iOlcLT53uiI//wtxA+RykSaaA9z+lg zmSJDZx5MbIVPQLCUOUaSdeHPiE2WCBs3pikC4wy/72UAZY3Xw2bsj4FDcb2MvCA T7/9bxsuJVTW5GNtuQ3OwbPYp+ndmEjO2Heb4xYuUX252IcH25kSwwFP2ocjxv+Z BQofBTu89tOj8J3vxbjcFRAI8KAH3hoooucvbNRNyOJv1c6EkbtN5/LvwU/XR9mo kiWb5AbOAMInWb49yPkrzTr7Mm2V2nEGGe4Ndsa1PazwRRh9j82xySdiz1vqb8db P8hCvuXi/mIENvepo3cu =NIO0 -END PGP SIGNATURE- --=-tf7Hdw0ebARTkRiRrBOX-- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

control: severity -1 minor This file has no functional purpose, it's not different than a windows binary left in a source package, so please ignore it. It doesn't harm anyone's freedom to use and modify this package. If you care about this issue I invite you to join the Java Team on alioth [1] and upload a repacked version of this package.

control: severity -1 serious X-Debbugs-CC: ftpmas...@debian.org activemq-web-demo/src/main/webapp/js/jquery-1.4.2.min.js lack source., env if you do not use it. According to Debian Free Software Guidelines [1] (DFSG) #2: "The program must include source code, and must allow distribution in source code as well as compiled form.". This could also constitute a license violation for some copyleft licenses such as the GNU GPL. In order to solve this problem, you could: 1. repack the origin tarball adding the missing source to it. 2 add the source files to "debian/missing-sources" directory Both way satisfies the requirement that we ship the source. Second option might be preferable due to the following reasons [2]: - Upstream can do it too and you could even supply a patch to them, thus full filling our social contract [3], see particularly §2. - If source and non-source are in different locations, ftpmasters may miss the source and (needlessly) reject the package. - The source isn't duplicated in every .diff.gz/.debian.tar.* (though this only really matters for larger sources). You could also ask debian...@lists.debian.org or #debian-qa for more guidance. Bastien -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
