Description of problem: Zoneminder package bundles jscalendar: zoneminder.spec [...] Source5: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/jscalendar/jscalendar-1.0.zip [...] # Install jscalendar - this really should be in its own package install -d -m 755 %{buildroot}/%{_datadir}/%{name}/www/jscalendar cp -rp jscalendar-1.0/* %{buildroot}/%{_datadir}/zoneminder/www/jscalendar [...] Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.25.0-15.fc21 Additional info: This seems to be bundled in phpldapadmin as well (bug 513890).
If course you know that javascript is not covered under the bundling guidelines. If there were a separate jscalendar package I would probably tweak things to use it, but there isn't, so.... I'm not sure why this bug was filed and am tempted to close it.
I think you are referring to this passage (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Duplication_of_system_libraries): "At this time JavaScript intended to be served to a web browser on another computer is specifically exempted from this but this will likely change in the future." Is jscalendar a library intended for remote consumption or actually a separate application? However, this applies only to libraries, so I think https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Bundling_of_multiple_projects still applies.
It's just a javascript file that's served out over the web, used to implement date selection. It is entirely exempted from the guidelines on bundling at the current time, and I'm not really sure how you could arrive at a different conclusion. In any case, as I wrote earlier, if there was a separate jscalendar package I'd tweak zoneminder to just symlink to it or something, but we'd actually need guidelines for packaging javascript in a manner able to be used in that way, and we don't have them.
