hmm, the changelog says:
* Drop 15_remove_jquery_file.dpatch because Trac requires a specific
version of jQuery (Closes: #592734, #610557) (LP: #526810, #610205).
If a specific version is required, the trac debian package should have
an explicit versioned dependency. Embedding a copy of another software
package is bad news from a security and maintenance perspective.
I'm CC'ing the folks tracking embedded code copies [0] here so they're
aware of this new issue.
