I believe it matters that not only project name but also release version matches between source and minified code. I therefore believe packages shipping minified code must ensure that corresponding source - i.e. same version - is available in Debian. And make sure to adapt if that source is later dropped from the archive (e.g. by upgrading the jquery package to newer upstream release). NB! I am not suggesting to actually do such tedious tracking, only acknowledging that such approach is valid¹. What I suggest is the far simpler approach: strip minified code from source) - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
