Thorsten had the same concern in March.

See my comment in the debian/copyright header [1]. If that is
unsatisfactory, I can
1. drop the Files-Excluded lines, or
2. we can have mismatched tarballs with Ubuntu until the next upstream
release, or
3. use a repack suffix for the upstream version number until the next
upstream release.

I consider it a fairly minor issue since the jquery file affects the
source package only, not the binaries. And nearly every package that
uses autotools has unnecessary (for Debian) copies of autotools
macros (since we run autoreconf).
