Bug#735769: Drupal7 - minified JavaScript
Hi Gunnar, I just saw your comment on this bug from February 18 Personally, I don't think it is enough to say that a package is not using some artifacts from the source tarball - while it is a technically valid argument, it would make it far more difficult for FTP masters to inspect source packages and badness could start to creep in as a consequence of any generosity they show in this area. Repackaging upstream tarballs is becoming a common problem with minified JavaScript, maybe we need to have some automated way of doing this. For upstreams who use git and who release the exact contents of their tags (without any autotools bootstrapping, etc), it should be fairly easy to create some system on alioth that mirrors all the upstreams and pro-actively generates +dfsg versions of their tags ready for maintainers to work with.

Right. This bug was opened before the relevant discussion in d-devel, and I am also convinced the minified js should be removed from the source tarball. I have not had time to look into this, and any help you can give will be appreciated; a simple (or as simple as possible, at least) repack.sh script should do. Automating this sounds interesting, but I cannot do more than just say it sounds interesting right now :( signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Bug#735769: Drupal7 - minified JavaScript
FWIW, this list might prove useful, and also point at libraries not
yet packaged:
drupal7$ for js in $(find . -name *.min.js); do
js=$(basename $js)
echo -n $js ⇒
found=$(apt-file search $js|cut -f 1 -d :|grep -v ^drupal7)
if [ -z $found ]; then
nonmin=$(apt-file search ${js/.min/}|cut -f 1 -d :);
if [ -z $nonmin ]; then
echo NOT PACKAGED;
else
echo $nonmin (NON MINIMIZED);
fi
else
echo $found
fi
done
jquery.ui.position.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.effects.slide.min.js ⇒ mediawiki (NON MINIMIZED)
jquery.ui.autocomplete.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.ui.core.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.effects.clip.min.js ⇒ mediawiki (NON MINIMIZED)
jquery.effects.highlight.min.js ⇒ mediawiki (NON MINIMIZED)
jquery.effects.core.min.js ⇒ mediawiki (NON MINIMIZED)
jquery.effects.explode.min.js ⇒ mediawiki (NON MINIMIZED)
jquery.ui.tabs.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.ui.progressbar.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.effects.shake.min.js ⇒ mediawiki (NON MINIMIZED)
jquery.ui.draggable.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.ui.droppable.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.ui.accordion.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.effects.scale.min.js ⇒ mediawiki (NON MINIMIZED)
jquery.ui.datepicker.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.ui.dialog.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.effects.drop.min.js ⇒ mediawiki (NON MINIMIZED)
jquery.effects.blind.min.js ⇒ mediawiki (NON MINIMIZED)
jquery.ui.resizable.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.effects.bounce.min.js ⇒ mediawiki (NON MINIMIZED)
jquery.effects.transfer.min.js ⇒ mediawiki (NON MINIMIZED)
jquery.effects.pulsate.min.js ⇒ mediawiki (NON MINIMIZED)
jquery.ui.mouse.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.ui.slider.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.ui.selectable.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.effects.fade.min.js ⇒ mediawiki (NON MINIMIZED)
jquery.ui.button.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.ui.sortable.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
jquery.effects.fold.min.js ⇒ mediawiki (NON MINIMIZED)
jquery.ui.widget.min.js ⇒ libjs-jquery-ui wordpress
So,
• Wordpress has at least the same duplication Drupal7 has WRT
libjs-jquery-ui (which should be the canonical source for .min.js
files)
• Many of the files we need are provided by Mediawiki. Should they
rather be split?
• Of course, it's not just a matter of finding the right filename, but
ensuring they are compatible and do not produce regressions :-/
Something that Javascript has a bad fame about...
