Thank you for checking. I think using bundled ckeditor is not an option because it is source-less and shipped as minified blobs. jQuery is a lot easier to handle because it is just one file. > Also it would prevent backports of otrs to jessie. I'm already working on that. "ckbuilder" is in backports/NEW and once accepted I'll upload "ckeditor" (which I need in backports for one of my packages as well). > >> and mostly it is not possible to replace the > >> libjs thirdparty foo with the packages from Debian, mostly because of > >> version missmatches. As I've said, you don't have to replace all bundled JS libraries with system ones as it might make package needlessly fragile and difficult to backport. What you have to do is to find original/uncompressed JS files and ship them in "debian/missing-sources" ideally replacing minified files as well. It is easy to do and safe and it will help your package to comply with DFSG requirements. > You reported a very general bug about the whole javascript mess. > Replacing ckeditor will not solve the other problems or all those > minified files and so on. You have to start somewhere don't you? I'm not even Otrs2 user (let alone maintainer) so why do expect more from me? > Investing work in removing those files will not realy help and just > burden the whole packaging and eat time to fix realy serious issues - > like embedded libs. I think DFSG compliance is not optional in Debian. Shipping missing sources in "debian/missing-sources" shouldn't take too much effort...
