Your criticism is unconstructive. I agree that this is wrong, but sometimes wrong is the right thing to do. This is even acknowledged by our policy which discourages embedded copies rather than forbidding them. I am not opposed to fixing this embedding, but I will not be doing the work. I tried and figured that it is not worth the effort. Apparently, you didn't even read the reasons I gave for not fixing it. Otherwise you might have given actual arguments. > entire technology behind doxygen needs gentle kicking, like > people such as Torsten Werner did to Java??? stuff, to get it to > conform to our expectations. Please stop useless ranting already. For changing the status quo, your options are: * Explain what parts of the reasoning in Doxygen's README.jquery you consider wrong and why. * Provide patches that do not break existing use cases. * Maintain new packages that contain the Javascript libraries used by Doxygen. * Make Arch:all autobuilding work.
