Hi,

Sorry if I'm not writing to the correct ml, but since you are 
maintaining the package, you may have the answer:

What is the point of having a self recursive symlink in general and in 
particular with this package.

/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/xstatic/pkg/jquery_ui/data/ui -> .

https://lintian.debian.org/tags/symlink-is-self-recursive.html

If I'm asking this, it's because any self recursive link breaks the 
staticfiles collection of horizon dashboard (juno package, 
/usr/share/openstack-dashboard/manage.py collectstatic)

Cheers,

Raphael
