Created attachment 1479262 [details]
0001-Use-jQuery-3-js-jquery.patch

Description of problem:
Flot should not depend on js-jquery1; it should depend on js-jquery (version 3). js-jquery1 and js-jquery2 are orphaned, and full of security bugs that are not being maintained upstream.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nodejs-flot-0.8.3-5.fc27.noarch


Additional info:
I'm willing to help co-maintain nodejs-flot, since I'm maintaining js-jquery and depend on nodejs-flot for other packages I maintain. I've done a scratch build against js-jquery here: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=29348250

Attached is a patch for modifying the spec file. I could also do a pull request in src.fedoraproject.org, if that's easier.

I think branches f28, f29, and master (f30) should be patched, but f29 and master (f30) at a minimum.
Comment 1 Christopher Tubbs 2018-09-09 20:00:29 UTC 
Ping. This is kinda important, given that js-jquery1 is orphaned, and will be removed from Fedora if it remains so. This will affect not only Flot, but everything that depends on Flot. Please fix.

Fixed, thanks for the patch.
