That would be fine with me if that is what it takes. Include the full
blown Jquery UI.
Thanks,

There is a jQuery package in Debian, but it is a slightly older version
There are various issues that motivate these rules/policies in
distributions:
- disk space
- security updates (better to just have one copy of X to update in one
shot, hard to find multiple bundled copies of X and check they all have
the latest/necessary security patches)
- source - bundling any minified artifact is not consider to be real
source code
That said, given that every project seems to depend on a different
version of jQuery, there is some leniency - Debian accepts bundled
copies of some things like jQuery as long as they are not minified. It
is perfectly OK to minify them in an installation script, but the source
tarball from the Ganglia web site must be 100% readable source code.
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=736104
I had a quick look at this and found that the jquery-ui stuff is not
cleanly available as source because of the way it is built as a custom
JavaScript file using the tool here:
https://jqueryui.com/download
so it is not a quick fix for me to simply drop in uncompressed JavaScript.
What can be done is that instead of using the "custom" method to get
jquery-ui, perhaps the full source from here:
https://jqueryui.com/resources/download/jquery-ui-1.10.4.zip
can be downloaded into the ganglia-web repository (including both the
minified and the human readable version) and then the full minified .js
file (rather than a custom.min.js file) can be used within ganglia-web
Are the ganglia-web developers happy to support that version of
jquery-ui? Is there any reason the custom version has to be used?
The package has now taken the first step towards being completely
dropped from Debian and Ubuntu:
http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/ganglia-web.html
so it is important that we agree on a solution for 3.5.13 or it will be
completely missing from the upcoming Ubuntu "trusty" release and the
Debian 8 release early next year.

Daniel
